Scientific paper

A highly temperature dependent continuum corresponding to absorption by thermally excited molecules underlies the higher bands of the Schumann-Runge system of oxygen. This continuum has been experimentally determined at 18 wavelengths in the range 175 nm to 179 nm, and at temperatures of 90 K and 294 K. Calculations of the continuum cross-section made by solving the Schroedinger equation for the molecular potentials provide good agreement with the measured values. The continuum cross-section has been calculated at a range of temperatures for use in studies of the atmospheric absorption of solar radiation.
