Abstract
The influence of electric fields (especially, plasma microfields) on atomic levels and transition probabilities is very important for various applications of atomic spectroscopy. For this reason, not only quadratic and linear Stark effects in the homogeneous and static electric field, but also the effects of inhomogeneous and variable fields are considered in this chapter.
