Mid- and far-infrared spectroscopy of ices - Optical constants and integrated absorbances

Abstract
Laboratory spectra through the mid-infrared (4000 to 500 cm-1 [2.5-20 micrometers]) have been used to calculate the optical constants (n and k) and integrated absorption coefficients (A) for a variety of pure and mixed molecular ices of relevance to astrophysics. The ices studied were H2O, CH3OH, CO2, OCS, CH4, CO2 + CH4, CO2 + OCS, CO + CH4, CO + OCS, O2 + CH4, O2 + OCS, N2 + CH4, N2 + OCS, H2O + CH4, H2O + OCS, and H2O + CH3OH + CO + NH3. In addition, the measurements have been extended through the far-infrared (500 to 50 cm-1 [20-200 micrometers]) for the H2O, CH3OH, and H2O + CH3OH + CO + NH3 ices.
