Specific subject description
The PhD student will primarily work with our new High-Resolution Chemical
Ionisation ToF-MS (HR-CI-ToF-MS) with a special designed inlet to identify
and quantify organic molecules both in the gas and particle phase. This is a
novel method that is rapidly growing in importance within atmospheric
chemistry. The use of HR-CI-ToF-MS has also many applications outside the
field of atmospheric chemistry making an expert in this field very
attractive for further challenges.
The basic idea of this project is to apply a molecular approach to
understand the chain of processes relevant to oxidation of organic compounds
in the atmosphere with implications for organic aerosol formation. The
organic aerosol is one of the least known fractions of the atmospheric
aerosol and there is an urgent need to better understand its behavior in
order to facilitate modelling descriptions of climate change and air
quality.
Eligibility
The qualifications for education on a doctoral level are: degree in advanced
level, at least 240 university points, of which 60 are on an advanced level,
or in an other way acquired similar knowledge.
Additional information
Third cycle education aims to lead to a Ph.D. in Natural sciences or natural
sciences with a specialisation in Chemistry. Ph.D studies comprises four
years at the post graduate level. The time period can be extended to 5 years
in total through teaching and/or other departmental duties. For more

The research group
Our atmospheric science constellation is unique in Sweden in that it takes a
molecular approach to transport and reaction processes in the atmosphere. A
unifying focus is the study of aerosols, with activities ranging from
fundamental studies of chemical reactions on the molecular level, to applied
work including field studies of atmospheric processes, their importance to
current climate and air quality research. The research contributes to
developments in the fields of colloidal chemistry, nanotechnology, medicine
as well as development of traffic related chemistry and sustainable
development in developing countries.
