COMMENTS: Single wavelength absorption cross sections for the atomic lines at 185 nm (Hg), 203, 206, 214 nm (Zn) and 229 nm (Cd) at temperatures between 210 and 350 K

The absorption cross section decreased with decreasing temperature at 185, 213, and 229 nm, but showed an increase at 203 nm and a nearly temperature independent behavior at 206 nm

Precision of the measurements at the 2σ (95% confidence) level

The following absorption cross section parameterization for 200-235 nm and 210-350 K was obtained:

log10 σ(λ,T) = ∑An λn + (T - 273) ∑Bn λn with
