(Phys.org)—A large multinational team of researchers, led by Markku Kulmala of Finland's University of Helsinki, has for the first time discovered the birth process of a class of aerosols. As they describe in their paper published in the journal Science, the team was able to view the building blocks of aerosols by constructing an ultra-sensitive aerosol-particle detector and analyzing the particles that were captured.
