Collisional broadening by hydrogenfor stellar spectroscopy : extension towards high-lying states

The object of this thesis is to extend the current tables for two useful quantities when calculatingcollisional broadening, the cross-section of interaction and the velocity parameter.These quantities, which have hitherto been tabulated for lower states, have now been calculatedfor higher lying states and are used in the ABO - model for spectral line broadening.Having larger tables for these values enables broadening calculations for more spectral linesand this thesis shows examples of calculations which beneted from this. During the calculationsof the tables some unexpected behaviour in the distribution of values arose whichhas not been seen previously. This could point to an unknown underlying mechanism.
