Moortgat, B. Veyret, R. Leclaux Title: Absorption spectrum and kinetics of reactions of the acetylperoxy radical Journal/Source: J. Phys. Chem., 93, 2362-2368, (1989); DOI: 10.1021/j100343a032 Data: table, diagram Energy/Wavelength range: 190 - 280 nm Resolution: Temperature: 298 K Temperature dependence: no Pressure/Concentration: Phase: gas pH: Comments: The spectrum shows a strong maximum at 207 nm, with sigma = 9.5 x 10^-18 cm2 molecule-1 and a weak maximum near 245 nm with sigma = 3.7 x 10^-18 cm2 molecule-1. Cross section data scaled using sigma(HO2) = 4.17 x 10^-18 cm2 molecule-1 at 210 nm. Author to whom correspondence should be addressed: (e-mail address):
