COMMENTS: JPl-2015(2015) recommendation:

The earlier recommendations for the absorption cross sections at 182-290 nm (JPL-2002, JPL-2006, JPL-2010) have been adopted

The parameterization of the temperature dependence (210-300 K, 210-290 nm) using an empirical polynomial expansion:

log10 σ(λ, T) = ∑An λn + (T–273) × ∑Bnλn, n = 1-4

with the following parameters A and Bn

A0 = 7.997        B0= 0.457415
A1 = –0.889724     B1 = –0.00882996
A2 = 0.00838084      B2 = 6.40235 × 10–5
A3 = –3.03191 × 10–5    B3 = –2.06827 × 10–7
A4 = 3.69427 × 10–8   B4= 2.51393 × 10–10

obtained by a re-fit of the data of Gillotay and Simon(1988) is recommended
