The GEISA-2015 sub-database on
infrared absorption coss-sections

General content

Description of columns :
Column 1 : molecular species common or chemical names
Column 2 : spectral coverage (cm-1)
Column 3 : overall temperature range (K)
Column 4 : total pressure range (Pa)
Column 5 : number of associated temperature-pressure sets
Column 6 : related reference
Column 7 : reference number

In green: updated molecular species, already implemented in GEISA-11
In blue: newly implemented molecular species in GEISA-2015
