Comments: The photolysis of methyl vinyl ketone at small conversions has been studied at 308 nm and at temperatures from 
approximately 300 K to 475 K as a function of the partial pressures of methyl vinyl ketone, argon and oxygen.
The maximum partial pressures of argon and oxygen used in these experiments were approximately 450 Torr. The maximum 
pressure of methyl vinyl ketone was limited by its vapour pressure to approximately 45 Torr.
