DATAFILE: n-C8H18_Lombos(1967)_298K_116.1-160.2nm.txt
NAME: n-octane
FORMULA: n-C8H18
AUTHOR(YEAR): Lombos(1967)
T: 298K
λ: 116.1-160.2nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: B.A. Lombos, P. Sauvageau, and C. Sandorfy, "The electronic spectra of n-alkanes", J. Mol. Spectrosc. 24, 253-269 (1967); DOI: 10.1016/0022-2852(67)90089-6
COMMENTS: Absorption measurements using a hydrogen discharge tube as the light source and a vacuum spectrophotometer under 0.02 nm resolution

Extinction coefficients vs. wavenumber as plotted in Fig. 3 have been digitized and converted to absorption cross sections (conversion factor 3.8235×10-21) vs. wavelength
