The manufacturer calibration is based on polystyrene latex spheres (m=l.588-0i), therefore the size distributions derived from measurements taken with the ASASP-X should be corrected for particles of different refractive index. Corrections based on the manufacturer calibration and Mie theory are used to derive size corrections for different refractive indices. These corrections are applied to data and demonstrate the significant over and underestimation of aerosol volume distributions possible if no corrections to diameter are applied.reportsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
