Prather Group Instrumentation

        In our research program, we use a wide range of instrumentation to probe the role of aerosol particles in pollution, global climate change, and human health effects.  A table of the instruments housed in our laboratories is given below.  As you can see, the aerosol time-of-flight mass spectrometer which was developed in our laboratory is just one of a suite of instruments available for studying heterogeneous chemistry and air pollution processes.  We are in the process of developing other instruments for the analysis of organic species in aerosol particles.
