Atmospheric photooxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) has significant effects on the formation of tropospheric ozone and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) as well as for recycling of the OH radical, yet many underlying processes and dependencies are not sufficiently understood to date. In this master thesis, the photooxidation of mixtures of anthropogenic and biogenic VOC is studied.
