Price, P.V. Harris Title: Ultra-violet Absorption Spectra of the Molecules H2O, HDO and D2O Journal/Source: Nature, 188, 45-46, (1960); DOI: 10.1038/188045a0 Data: diagram Energy/Wavelength range: > 185 nm Resolution: Temperature: 293 K Temperature dependence: no Pressure/Concentration: Phase: pH: Comments: The absorbance of water rises nearly linearly down to at least 180 mµ, with no trace of fine-structure. At about 20° C the absorbance values for 1 cm path-length were found to be 0.1 at 192 nm, 1.0 at 186 nm and 10 at 181 nm very nearly.
