It's all about the atmosphere

Title of the project: Heterogeneous nucleation and growth rate measurements under cold conditions
Name of the VDSP student(s) & image credits: Aleksandra Morawiec
Project supervised by: Paul Winkler

About me/us: My name is Aleksandra Morawiec, but everybody calls me Ola (read the same as Spanish "hi": "hola!"). I am a physicist who recently moved to Vienna to work on environmental physics in the aerosol physics group. I am also a part of the CLOUD experiment at CERN and part of the CLOUD-DOC program. I am happy to be here, waiting to meet new friends and settle in Austria.

Image: I created a poster with pop art and grunge influences, featuring the DMAtrain — an instrument measuring aerosol growth rates. In the CLOUD experiment at CERN, captured as an experimental layout displayed at the background planet, we investigate physics between galactic cosmic rays and aerosols. Our goal is to understand the impact of cosmic rays on cloud formation and climate. The poster captures our ability to simulate cosmic radiation in the atmosphere, showcasing the instrument's view of the night sky and stars from up close.

I edited the poster in Adobe Express which is free for commercial use environment. I also drew on the poster with CollaNote which according to terms and conditions I can use for commercial use as long as I do not resell or sublicense contents which I am not.
