Absorption cross-sections are reported for CS2 for wavelengths between 187 nm and 230 nm at a temperature of 300 K and a spectral bandwidth of 0.20 nm. The results are compared to previous cross-section determinations for CS2, and to the absorption spectrum of SO2, which exhibits a strongly structured absorption band in the same region of the spectrum. The effect of spectral bandwidth and temperature on the absorption cross-sections is also discussed. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1993
