This week in lab we got a fun new instrument to use: a UV-VIS spectrometer. This instrument will allow us to better investigate the aerosols which we produce. This is exciting because it is a new step in fully understand the aerosols, and makes it so we can learn more about them than we ever could have before. I am looking forward to learning how to properly operate this instrument, and even more excited for what we will be able to learn from it.
