REFERENCE PAPERS
Evolution of Earths Atmosphere
Information on
spectroscopy and photolysis from “Chemistry of the Upper and
Photochemistry of
Important Atmospheric gases
Kinetics
Big reference for
rate constants, absorption cross sections, and quantum yields.
This paper produced
the Cl-acetone absorption cross sections and discusses the photolysis quantum
yield values.
