• Measurement of glyoxal using an incoherent broadband cavity enhanced absorption spectrometer (2008, background): “(2) are taken from the more recent extinction measurements of Sneep and Ubachs (2005) who measured the Rayleigh scattering cross-section for N2 at 470–490 nm and 532.2 nm, and fit the wavelength dependence to an empirical expression (σRay∼λ−4.082) that accounts for the dispersion of the refractive…”
• PHOTOCHEMISTRY IN TERRESTRIAL EXOPLANET ATMOSPHERES. I. PHOTOCHEMISTRY MODEL AND BENCHMARK CASES (2012, background): “…Earth’s atmosphere is from Seinfeld & Pandis (2006); the refractive index of H2 is from Dalgarno & Williams (1962); the refractive index of N2 is from Cox (2000); the refractive index of CO2 is from Old et al. (1971); and refractive indices – 15 – of CO, and CH4 are given in Sneep & Ubachs (2005).”
• Laser scattering on an atmospheric pressure plasma jet: disentangling Rayleigh, Raman and Thomson scattering (2012, neutral): “The differential cross section dσray/d for Rayleigh scattering depends on the species [16], which means that the reference measurement should in principle be done with the same gas composition.”
