Abstract: levitation diffusion chamber designed to examine the mass growth from the vapor of small ice particles (diameter < 100 ?m) at ambient pressure (?970 hPa) and low temperature (T < ?30°C) is presented. The diffusion chamber ...

Abstract: A laboratory system composed of an electrodynamic levitation cell within an environmental control chamber has been designed and built. The system is ideal for studies of individual particles, such as pure water droplets, ...

Abstract: Experiments were conducted with an electrodynamic levitation system to study the kinetics of droplet evaporation under chemically rich conditions. Single solution droplets of known composition (HNO3/H2O or H2SO4/HNO3/H2O) ...

Abstract: There are few measurements of the vapor growth of small ice crystals at temperatures below −30°C. Presented here are mass-growth measurements of heterogeneously and homogeneously frozen ice particles grown within an ...
