The photolysis rate constant of dichlorine peroxide (ClOOCl, ClO dimer) J(ClOOCl) is a critical parameter in catalytic cycles destroying ozone (O-3) in the polar stratosphere. In the atmospherically relevant wavelength region (lambda > 310 nm), significant discrepancies between laboratory measure...
