Summary of Aerosol Data Analysis No detected loss of signal with time No detected damage to sample at the relative low fluence Actively probed area ~ 10 -5 m 2 Number of aerosol “spots”– ~1000 for ammonium nitrate– ~ 100 for Malathion SNR indicates single aerosol detection possible withunimproved apparatus Substrate results in negligible signal
