Short summary
Highly accurate rate coefficients of termolecular reactions between OH and HO2 radicals and reactive nitrogen oxides were measured for conditions in the lower troposphere, providing improved constraints on recommended values. No dependence on water vapour was found except for the HO2+NO2 reaction, which can be explained by an enhanced rate coefficient of the NO2 reaction with the water complex of the HO2 radical.
