NAME: nitric oxide
FORMULA: NO
AUTHOR(YEAR): ZuevStarikovskii(1990)
T: 1770-3220K
λ: 246nm(fit)
BIBLIOGRAPHY: A.P. Zuev and A.Y. Starikovskii, "UV absorption cross section of the molecules O2, NO, N2O, CO2, H2O, and NO2", J. Appl. Spectrosc. 52, 304-313 (1990); DOI: 10.1007/BF00665356
COMMENTS: Absorption measurements behind incident and reflected shock waves in NO diluted with Ar

Calculated values using the empirical fit (Boltzmann distribution of the populations of the vibrational levels of the ground electronic state):

σ(λ T) = σ0 (1 - exp(-Θ/T)) exp(-neff Θ/T)

with
σ0 = 6.310×10-19
Θ = 2714 K (characteristic vibrational temperature for nitric oxide)
neff = 2.14 ("effective number" of the vibrational level responsible for the observed absorption)
