High-speed 355-nm PLIF imaging provides a time-resolved measure of the presence of CH2O and PAHs around 3-4 rings in size. A sample movie is shown below.

Below is a ensemble- and time-averaged quasi-steady image. The color scales are set to highlight the CH2O field, while allowing the signal from PAHs to saturate.
