Note (1): The Maxwellian-averaged rate coefficients are tabulated for scaled
          electron temperatures between 100 and 50000 z^2 K,
          where z is the ion charge.
         For example, the collision strength Gamma_e1 of O IV is given for
          T = 100 x z^2 K (1) = 100 x 3^2 K = 900 K
