DATAFILE: CH2O_Calvert(1972)_298K_290-360nm.txt
NAME: formaldehyde, methanal
FORMULA: CH2O
AUTHOR(YEAR): Calvert(1972)
T: 298K
λ: 290-360nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: J.G. Calvert, J.A. Kerr, K.L. Demerjian, and R.D. McQuigg, "Photolysis of formaldehyde as a hydrogen atom source in the lower stratosphere", Science 175, 751-752 (1972); DOI: 10.1126/science.175.4023.751
COMMENTS: The extinction coefficients (averaged over 10-nm intervals) from Table 1 have been converted to absorption cross sections (conversion factor 3.8235×10-21)
