Abstract. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is a complex mixture of hundreds of semi volatile to extremely low volatility organic compounds that are chemically processed in the atmosphere, including via heterogeneous oxidation by gas phase radicals. Relative humidity (RH) has a substantial impact on particle phase, which can affect how SOA evolves in the atmosphere. In this study, SOA from dark α-pinene ozonolysis is heterogeneously aged by OH radicals in a flowtube at low and high RH. At high RH (RH = 89 %) there is substantial loss of particle volume (~ 60 %) at an equivalent atmospheric OH exposure of 3 weeks. In contrast, at low RH (RH = 25 %) there is little mass loss (
