Short summary

Aerosol particles produced by gas-to-particle conversion in the atmosphere might influence the climate due to their effects on cloud formation. Characterizing the early growth of newly formed particles is extremely challenging. We present the development and characterization of an instrument that measures the evolution of particles smaller than 10 nm with high time resolution and/or high sensitivity to low concentrations. It can help quantify the characteristics of early nanoparticle growth.
