About
The University of Manchester awarded a contract to Aerodyne Research, Inc.
for a high-resolution aerosol mass spectrometer for aircraft use as part of the Facility for Airborne Atmospheric Measurements (FAAM) Midlife Upgrade (MLU) programme.
The equipment will upgrade the existing system on the FAAM BAe-146 research aircraft to enable continued cutting-edge aerosol measurements until 2040, including improved mass spectrometer design for measuring organic elemental composition in addition to mass concentrations.
The spectrometer will be based at The University of Manchester when not deployed on the aircraft.
