DATAFILE: CH3CN_Leach(2008)_298K_62.1-142.2nm.txt
NAME: acetonitrile, methyl cyanide
FORMULA: CH3CN
AUTHOR(YEAR): Leach(2008)
T: 298K
λ: 62.1-142.2nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: S. Leach, M. Schwell, S. Un, H.-W. Jochims, and H. Baumgärtel, "VUV absorption spectroscopy of acetonitrile between 7 and 20 eV: A revisionist study", Chem. Phys. 344, 147-163 (2008); DOI: 10.1016/j.chemphys.2007.12.012
COMMENTS: Absorption measurements with a precision of the energy scale is of ±5 meV using monochromatized synchrotron radiation as a light source

Absorption cross sections vs. photon energy (8-20 eV) plotted in Fig. 1 have been digitized and converted to absorption cross sections vs. wavelength
