DATAFILE: C2H6_MountMoos(1978)_295K_138-160nm.txt
NAME: ethane
FORMULA: C2H6
AUTHOR(YEAR): MountMoos(1978)
T: 295K
λ: 138-160nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: G.H. Mount and H.W. Moos, "Photoabsorption cross sections of methane and ethane, 1380-1600 Å at T = 295 K and T = 200 K", Astrophys. J. 224, L35-L38 (1978); DOI: 10.1086/182753
COMMENTS: Measurements also at 200 K:

σ(200 K)/σ(295 K) = 1 at λ = 138 - 152 nm;
σ(200 K)/σ(295 K) decreases to ∼ 0.8 between 152 and 157 nm (see Fig. 2)
