Absorption Cross Sections

Absorption Cross Sections is a physical quantity in spectroscopy representing the effective area each molecule presents for absorbing incident radiation, distinguishing it from other interaction cross sections by quantifying the probability of photon absorption per molecule as a function of wavelength or frequency.
