Structure and stability of atmospheric ions in nanoscale water droplets
Project Description:
The scope of this project is to predict the solubility of ions into, onto and around water droplets using molecular mechanics.
Project Significance:
1) to investigate how ions dissolve into atmospheric water droplets;
2) to determine stable forms of environmentally important gases and their position in a water droplet.
3) to predict new stable atmospheric chemical species and their level of hydration.
