摘要
The Nolan-Pollak photoelectric nucleus counter was originally developed in the 1940s for aerosol climatology measurements although its versatility led subsequently to many other applications in aerosol science. It has been widely used in manual, automatic and modified forms in many parts of the world to record ambient concentrations of Aitken nuclei. The design, calibration and performance of an automatic counter is described. Measurements of Aitken nuclei at Mace Head, Ireland, are used to discuss its suitability for the purpose of aerosol climatology.
