Abstract:

We present thermally averaged collision strengths for electron induced transitions in helium from $\rm 1s^2\,\,^1S$ , $\rm 1s2s\,\,^S$ , $\rm 1s2p\,\,^3P$ to higher lying terms ${\rm 1s}nl\,\,^L$ with $n \leq 5$ . Results are tabulated as functions of temperature in the range $3.75 \leq {\rm log}\,T \leq 5.75$ . Cross sections are calculated using the convergent close-coupling (CCC) method.
