Secondary organic aerosol formation from gasoline passenger vehicle emissions investigated in a smog chamber
Gasoline vehicles have elevated emissions of volatile organic compounds during coldstarts and idling and have recently been pointed out as potentially the main sourceof anthropogenic secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in megacities. However, there is5 a lack of laboratory studies to systematically investigate SOA formation in real-worldexhaust. In this study, SOA formation from pure aromatic precurso
