Transfer, 28, 223-231, (1982); http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0022-4073(82)90025-5 Data: diagram, table Energy/Wavelength range: 60 - 160 nm Resolution: 0.05 nm (FWHM) Temperature: Temperature dependence: Pressure/Concentration: Phase: gas pH: Comments: Quantitative vacuum ultraviolet absorption spectra for HCN, C2N2, and CH3CN have been obtained over the wavelength range 60-160 nm. For CH3CN the region between 60 and 94 nm is dominated by a broad ionization continuum upon which is superimposed a weak vibrational structure.
