DATAFILE: CH4_Smith(1990)_290K_604-627nm.txt
NAME: methane
FORMULA: CH4
AUTHOR(YEAR): Smith(1990)
T: 290K
λ: 604-627nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: W.H. Smith, C.P. Conner, and K.H. Baines, "Absorption coefficients for the 6190-Å CH4 band between 290 and 100°K with application to Uranus' atmosphere", Icarus 85, 58-64 (1990); DOI: 10.1016/0019-1035(90)90103-G
COMMENTS: Absorption measurements applying a laser intracavity photoacoustic spectroscopy method (spectral resolution 0.25 nm)

Absorption coefficients in km-1 amagat-1 (base e) listed at 1-nm intervals in Table I have been converted to absorption cross sections (conversion factor 3.72× 10-25)
