Abstract

This chapter may be considered as an introduction to some problems of plasma spectroscopy. In the beginning we give a summary of the analytic formulas which can approximate the dependence of the rate coefficients 〈υσ〉 on temperature and atomic characteristics. These formulas contain two fitting parameters which should be determined from the results of numerical calculations. Tables of these parameters will be described in Chap. 6. Some useful semiempirical formulas are also given below.
