Atomic and Molecular Photoabsorption: Partial Cross Sections is a companion work to Joseph Berkowitz' earlier work, Atomic and Molecular Photoabsorption: Absolute Total Cross Sections, that was published with Academic Press in 2002. In this work the Joseph Berkowitz selected the best absolute partial cross sections for the same species as included in the companion work. A contrast however is that photoabsorption measurements, being of order I/Io, do not require the most intense light sources, whereas acquiring data on the products of light interactions with gaseous matter (ions, electrons, various coincidence measurements) has benefited significantly with the arrival of second and third generation synchrotrons. The newer devices have also extended the energy range of the light sources to include the K-shells of the species discussed here. The newer light sources encouraged experimentalists to develop improved instrumentation. Thus, the determination of partial cross sections continues to be an active field, with more recent results in some cases superseding earlier ones. Where the accuracy of the absolute partial cross sections is deemed sufficient (5%), numerical tables are included in this new work. In other cases, the available data are presented graphically.
