Calculation of the Absorption Cross Sections of Some Molecules from GEISA Database at the Wavelengths of Isotopically Different CO2 Lasers

Table 6

The largest absorption cross sections (in 10−20 cm2 units) of CH3OH and HCCOH at low pressure and = 296 K. The Doppler shape of spectral lines is assumed.
