Krasnoperov, E.N. Chesnokov, H. Stark, A.R. Ravishankara Title: Elementary reactions of formyl (HCO) radical studied by laser photolysis-transient absorption spectroscopy Journal/Source: Proceedings of the Combustion Institute, 30, 935-943, (2005); doi:10.1016/j.proci.2004.08.223 Data: Energy/Wavelength range: Resolution: Temperature: 298 K; 588 K Temperature dependence: yes Pressure/Concentration: Phase: pH: Comments: The UV absorption spectrum of HCO was revised. The maximum absorption cross-section of HCO is (7.3 ± 1.2) x 10-18 cm2 molecule-1 at 230 nm (temperature independent within the experimental error).
