Summary of Photodestruction Cross Section Measurements of Atmospheric Ions.

Abstract

Using a drift tube mass spectrometer coupled with a laser photon source absolute photodestruction cross sections as a function of photon energy have been measured for various room temperature (300 K) atmospheric ions. These ions are O2(-), O3(-), O4(-), NO2(-), SO2(-), O2(-)(H2O), CO4(-), SO4(-), O2(+)(O2), O2(+)(H2O), O2(+)(CO2), O2(+)(SO2), CO2(+)(CO2), and H(+)(H2O) sub n = 1 to 4. (Author)
