| COMMENTS: | JPl-2015(2015) recommendation:

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 |
