A realistic analytical central potential with two adjustable parameters is used to generate wavefunctions for the ground and excited states of doubly ionized boron. Generalized oscillator strengths and integrated cross sections from threshold up to 5 keY are calculated in the Born approximation for 2s-ns, 2s-np and 2s-nd excitations. Convenient analytic formulae for the cross sections are presented.

Collision strengths for electron impact excitation of Ne VIII are calculated at 14, 18, and 30 Ry in a 5-state close coupling expansion and the unitarized Coulomb–Born approximation. To assess the importance of exchange and coupling beyond the 5 states, additional calculations are made at 18 Ry in 5-state and 8-state close coupling expansions without exchange. For the 2s–2p excitation, calculations below the 3s threshold at 10.0 Ry are made in a 2-state close coupling expansion at 1.6, 3.2, and 8.0 Ry. In most instances the close coupling method gives results which differ by 15% or less from those of the unitarized Coulomb–Born approximation and by 20–70% from the CBI (Coulomb–Born) results of Bely. Rate coefficients which are calculated from the results obtained in the close coupling approximation agree within experimental error with the experimental results of Kunze and Johnston and Haddad and McWhirter with the exception of the rate coefficient for the 2p → 3d excitation.


The expression for the cross-section obtained from the second Born approximation by including only terms to the third order in the interaction energy is employed to calculate cross-sections for the electron impact excitation of the 2 s level of atomic hydrogen, allow­ance being made for distortion and polarization due to the 1 s , 2 s and 2 p 0.± 1 intermediate states. These cross-sections are compared with the available experimental data.

The nonrelativistic Coulomb–Born approximation has been used to compute scaled collision strengths for electron impact excitation of the 1s → ns, np, nd transitions in hydrogenic ions. Results are given for n = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, [Formula: see text] as a function of the incident electron energy in threshold units. Simple formulae for interpolating the tabulated results are also given.
