Abstract
We report optical absorption measurements made on thick, highly pure crystals of O at 1.6 K. For the first time direct evidence is provided for a phonon-assisted paraexciton absorption edge. The relative strengths of phonon-assisted paraexciton and orthoexciton absorption edges are discussed.
