Description
Your tasks
You will lead and organize efforts for campaigns at an aircraft test bench and measurements at an airport
You will characterize, operate and calibrate an online mass spectrometer equipped with an extractive electrospray ionization mass spectrometer to measure both inorganic and organic components of the aerosol and quantify oil emissions
You will characterize the volatile components of aircraft exhaust emissions with a proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometer
You will understand the formation potential of secondary organic aerosol, and its composition using an extractive electrospray mass spectrometer and oxidative flow reactor
You will maintain an aerosol mass spectrometer and be responsible for aerosol instrumentation during campaigns to measure aircraft emissions
Your work will involve collaborative experiments with various collaborators, including international partners
