Simultaneous operation of three CCN counters and an isothermal haze chamber at the 1980 International CCN Workshop

Four devices were operated for the detection and characterization of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and fog condensation nuclei (FCN). In chronological order of development, the CCN devices are the conventional continuous-flow diffusion chamber (CFD), the rapid-cycle CCN spectrometer, and the instantaneous CCN spectrometer. The FCN detection device is an isothermal haze chamber (IHC). These four instruments are discussed and general comments on their performance at the workshop are given.
