Stark Broadening of O I Spectral Lines

We do not know a priori chemical composition of a star. However, with more high resolution spectra becoming more abundant thanks to the development of space-born observations, atomic data including Stark broadening parameters for various spectral lines for elements in various ionisation stages are becoming more feasible. Particularly are important spectral lines of C-N-O peak in the distribution of abundances of chemical elements. For the calculation of Stark broadening parameters, spectral line full widths at half intensity maximum (FWHM) and shifts, we used semiclassical perturbation method. As the result, Stark widths and shifts for 36 spectral lines of neutral oxygen, broadened by the collisions with electrons, protons and helium ions, have been obtained and compared with other theoretical calculations. These data are of interest for a number of problems in astrophysics, plasma physics, as well as for inertial fusion and various plasmas in technology.

Abstract

We do not know a priori chemical composition of a star. However, with more high resolution spectra becoming more abundant thanks to the development of space-born observations, atomic data including Stark broadening parameters for various spectral lines for elements in various ionisation stages are becoming more feasible. Particularly are important spectral lines of C-N-O peak in the distribution of abundances of chemical elements. For the calculation of Stark broadening parameters, spectral line full widths at half intensity maximum (FWHM) and shifts, we used semiclassical perturbation method. As the result, Stark widths and shifts for 36 spectral lines of neutral oxygen, broadened by the collisions with electrons, protons and helium ions, have been obtained and compared with other theoretical calculations. These data are of interest for a number of problems in astrophysics, plasma physics, as well as for inertial fusion and various plasmas in technology.
