Abstract

Context. Many observed emission lines from space missions are due to highly charged H-like ions. An analysis of the lines provides information on the temperature, density, and chemical composition of plasmas. A wide range of atomic parameters, such as energy levels, radiative rates, and excitation rate coefficients are needed to achieve this goal.
