COMMENTS: IUPAC(2008) recommendation:

The preferred values for the cross-sections at 298 K are based on the data for the absolute absorption cross-sections reported by

M.E. Jenkin, T.P. Murrells, S.J. Shalliker, and G.D, Hayman, "Kinetics and product study of the self-reactions of allyl and allyl peroxy radicals," J. Chem. Soc. Faraday Trans. 89, 433-446 (1993); DOI: 10.1039/FT9938900433,

O.V. Rattigan, D.E. Shallcross, and R.A. Cox, "UV absorption cross-sections and atmospheric photolysis rates of CF3I, CH3I, C2H5I and CH2ICl," J. Chem. Soc. Faraday Trans. 93, 2839-2846 (1997); DOI: 10.1039/A701529A, and

The listed values are actual values at 1-nm intervals.

The temperature dependence ln σ(T) = ln σ(298K) + B × (T - 298) and the temperature coefficients B (243-333 K):
