Left Aligning Text in Longtable
Hi! It took me hours how to figure out how to build this table and make it fit in my margins, but now my only issue is that I can't move the headers to the left. It's mostly just the second heading that has a big gap between "Particle" and "Size". I cut out some of the numbers to make it shorter. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I added the lines
\usepackage{ragged2e}
\usepackage{array}
\newcolumntype{R}[1]{>{\RaggedRight}p{#1}}but nothing changed. Am I missing something?

The table has also to use the new column type.
