The Ultraviolet Cross-Sections of Ozone: I. The Measurements

Abstract

Absorption cross-sections of ozone have been measured over the range 230 nm to 350 nm, and for temperatures 200K to 300K, with improved photometric accuracy and spectral resolution. These measurements are referred to the cross-section at the 253.65 nm mercury line, 1147 x 10-20cm2 (1), and show an internal consistency of {\textpm}1{\%}.
