Abstract
The classical theory of ion-induced nucleation in a H 2SO 4-H 2O mixture is revised and extended for use in a larger range of environmental conditions. Inspired by this theory an experiment has been set up, with the intention to demonstrate the occurrence of aerosol formation through ion-induced nucleation. H 2SO 4 and aerosol particles are continuously formed in a flow reactor by photolytical transformation of SO 2. Upon exposure of this mixture to γ radiation an increase of the particle concentration results. This effect is discussed qualitatively in terms of homogeneous nucleation, ion-induced nucleation and enhanced H 2SO 4 formation.
