DATAFILE: CH3OOH_Matthews(2005)_298K_355-405nm.txt
NAME: methylhydroperoxide
FORMULA: CH3OOH
AUTHOR(YEAR): Matthews(2005)
T: 298K
λ: 355-405nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: J. Matthews, A. Sinha, and J.S. Francisco, "The importance of weak absorption features in promoting tropospheric radical production", Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 102, 7449-7452 (2005); DOI: 10.1073/pnas.0502687102
COMMENTS: The absorption cross sections have been determined from the yield of the photodissociation product OH measured as a function of excitation energy.
The spectrum has been normalized to the absorption cross section 2.10×10-22 cm2 mol-1 at 355 nm measured by

G.L. Vaghjiani and A.R. Ravishankara, "Absorption cross sections of CH3OOH, H2O2, and D2O2 vapors between 210 and 365 nm at 297 K," J. Geophys. Res. 94, 3487-3492 (1989); DOI: 10.1029/JD094iD03p03487

The error limits of the absorption cross sections are listed in the third column of the data file
