We recently discovered that, due to a calculation error in the data reduction procedure, the D2O number densities presented in Fig. 2(b) and the H2O number densities for nozzle C in Fig. 3(b) of the original paper are incorrect. Consequently, the nucleation rates for H2O in nozzle C, Fig. 5 are also incorrect. Corrected versions of these Figures are presented below. None of the conclusions reached in the paper are changed.
Left: revised Fig. 2(b) The number densities for D2O aerosols measured ~5.6 cm downstream of the throat in nearly identical nozzles using SAXS (closed symbols) and SANS (open symbols). Right: revised Fig. 3(b) The number densities of H2O droplets formed in supersonic nozzles with different expansion rates decrease monotonically as the mass flow rate increases.
Revised Fig. 5 The measured nucleation rates for H2O in two supersonic nozzles as a function of the supersaturation S at the indicated temperatures (K).
