Chemical Kinetic Rate Coefficient Estimation Given Partial Information
Post, May 13, 2013 • Habib Najm, Khachik Sargsyan, and Bert Debusschere of the CRF, working with Cosmin Safta of Sandia’s Computer Sciences and Information Systems center and Robert Berry, formerly at the CRF and presently at The Climate Corporation in San Francisco, California, have demonstrated the use of a data free inference (DFI) approach...

CRF Researchers Make Direct Kinetic Measurements of Criegee Intermediate
Post, May 29, 2013 • Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories’ Combustion Research Facility, the University of Manchester, Bristol University, University of Southampton, and Hong Kong Polytechnic have successfully measured reaction rates of a second Criegee intermediate, CH3CHOO, and proven that the reactivity of the atmospheric chemical depends strongly on which way the molecule is twisted....

Criegee intermediate research featured in Science Roundup
Post, May 14, 2013 • Craig Taatjes and Davis Osborn’s paper, “Direct Measurements of Conformer-Dependent Reactivity of the Criegee Intermediate CH3CHOO,” was one of 12 papers featured in the April Science Roundup, a monthly review of highlights for AAAS members. The paper was published in the April 12 edition of Science magazine. In the paper,...

New Take on an Old Laser Diagnostic Opens Up Additional Avenues for Combustion Research
Post, May 29, 2013 • Coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS)—one of the most powerful gas-phase spectroscopic techniques—has been widely used and refined over the last 40 years in many fields of chemical physics, from chemical sensing and standoff detection of biowarfare agents to measuring molecular dynamics. CARS has also been applied to numerous combustion research...
