FORMULA: C2H2
AUTHOR(YEAR): Davidson(1993)
T: 805-2125K
λ: 216.65nm(fit)
BIBLIOGRAPHY: D.F. Davidson, A.Y. Chang, M.D. Di Rosa, and R.K. Hanson, "A cw laser absorption diagnostics for methyl radicals", J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer, 49, 559-571 (1993); DOI: 10.1016/0022-4073(93)90067-R
COMMENTS: Absorption measurements in shock heated acetylene/argon mixtures

A linear fit for the absorption coefficient

k (atm-1 cm-1) (base e) = 9.835×10-4 T - 0.382

has been digitized from Fig. 11 and converted to absorption cross sections (conversion factor RT = 1.36×10-22 T; R (gas constant) in cm3 atm molecule-1 K-1)
