A chemical actinometer for measurement of U.V. radiation intensity in the atmosphere
Abstract
The benzophenone-benzhydrol system may serve as a very convenient chemical actinometer for measuring solar radiation intensities in the region of 300-400 nm. The method possesses the necessary features for a high degree of accuracy and, technically, requires only standard equipment.
