COMMENTS: Absorption measurements (1-nm resolution, 242-320 K) using a D2 lamp and a spectrometer/CCD (charge‐coupled device) detector set-up

The authors provide an expression to calculate cross sections (230-335 nm) at different temperatures, σ(λ,T), using a two-state model (σ0 for electronic excitation from ground state and σ1 representing the cross sections for electronic excitation from the first vibrational state of the C=O vibration). The expression, which was validated with their experimental data, is as follows:

σ(λ,T) = X0σ0 + X1σ1,

where X0 = (1+exp (-2474.696/T))-1, X1 = 1- X0 and T is the temperature in Kelvin

The absorption cross sections σ, σ0, and σ1 have been downloaded from the "Supporting Information" published along with the online version of the article
