Abstract:
New collision strengths have been calculated for 990 transitions among
45 fine structure n=2 and n=3 levels of Fe XXII. The relativistic
Breit-Pauli formulation of the R-matrix method was employed in the
close coupling approximation, with radiation damping of autoionizing
resonances included for the first time in the calculations of
excitation rate coefficients. It is found that, at low temperatures,
the relativistic effects considerably enhance rate coefficients for
the intercombination transitions, and the radiation damping effect
reduces those for a few transitions. It is also found that resonances
due to coupling with the n=3 levels significantly enhance rate
coefficients for the transitions to low-lying levels at intermediate
and high temperatures, and for the transitions to the n=2 high-lying
levels at all temperatures. It is expected that the new data,
tabulated at a wide range of temperatures, would lead to a revision of
the spectral diagnostics of Fe XXII in laboratory and astrophysical
sources, in particular the X-ray spectra observed from solar flares
and tokamaks.
