Transforming the study of radicals in chemical kinetics and beyond
Gas-phase radicals (atoms or molecules with an unpaired electron) are hugely influential in numerous areas of research. Radicals are responsible for much of the chemistry occurring in the atmosphere, the interstellar medium, in plasmas, and in combustion processes. However, very few existing experimental methods can measure gas-phase radical processes under controlled conditions, resulting in significant unanswered questions across multiple fields. For example, our understanding of atmospheric chemistry and our ability to predict the impact of emissions targets is severely limited by a lack of data. In the absence of experimental measurements, untested assumptions are included in databases…
