The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Emissions from the laboratory combustion of wildland fuels: Particle morphology and size (2006, background): “This process begins with the formation of heavy polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from ejected fuel gases that condense, forming condensation nuclei allowing for further condensation of other species [ Glassman, 1996 ].”
A review of biomass burning: Emissions and impacts on air quality, health and climate in China. (2017, background): “produced by a gas-to-particle transformation followed by condensational growth in biomass smoke (Pósfai et al., 2003; Hand et al., 2005).”
