Virtual TDMA

The main purpose of this notebook is to interactively explore the output of a volatility/hygroscopicity tandem differential mobility analyzer (DMA) system. The instructor guides the students through the basic theory of operation. Changing the inputs allows students to visualize the role of multiply charged particles in shaping the tandem DMA response function.
