  2. Molar absorption coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_absorption_coefficient

    The SI unit of molar absorption coefficient is the square metre per mole (m 2 /mol), but in practice, quantities are usually expressed in terms of M −1 ⋅cm −1 or L⋅mol −1 ⋅cm −1 (the latter two units are both equal to 0.1 m 2 /mol).

  3. Attenuation coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attenuation_coefficient

    A coefficient value that is large represents a beam becoming 'attenuated' as it passes ... by definition of attenuation cross section and molar attenuation coefficient.

  4. Mathematical descriptions of opacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    molar absorption coefficient or molar extinction coefficient, also called molar absorptivity, is the attenuation coefficient divided by molarity (and usually multiplied by ln(10), i.e., decadic); see Beer-Lambert law and molar absorptivity for details;

  5. Absorbance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorbance

    ε is the molar attenuation coefficient of that material, and; c(z) is the molar concentration of that material at z. If c(z) is uniform along the path, the relation becomes =. The use of the term "molar absorptivity" for molar attenuation coefficient is discouraged. [1]

  6. Extinction coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinction_coefficient

    Extinction coefficient refers to several different measures of the absorption of light in a medium: Attenuation coefficient , sometimes called "extinction coefficient" in meteorology or climatology Mass extinction coefficient , how strongly a substance absorbs light at a given wavelength, per mass density

  7. Beer–Lambert law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer–Lambert_law

    The spectrum of pure bilirubin is known, so the molar attenuation coefficient ε is known. Measurements of decadic attenuation coefficient μ 10 are made at one wavelength λ that is nearly unique for bilirubin and at a second wavelength in order to correct for possible interferences.

  8. Absorption (electromagnetic radiation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_(electromagnetic...

    The attenuation coefficient (NB used infrequently with meaning synonymous with "absorption coefficient") [citation needed] The Molar attenuation coefficient (also called "molar absorptivity"), which is the absorption coefficient divided by molarity (see also Beer–Lambert law) The mass attenuation coefficient (also called "mass extinction ...

  9. Mass attenuation coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_attenuation_coefficient

    Mass attenuation coefficients of selected elements for X-ray photons with energies up to 250 keV. The mass attenuation coefficient, or mass narrow beam attenuation coefficient of a material is the attenuation coefficient normalized by the density of the material; that is, the attenuation per unit mass (rather than per unit of distance).
