Collision and Radiative Rates for Infrared to Extreme Ultraviolet Lines of S iii

Electron excitation collision strengths for a wide range of transitions giving rise to infrared, optical, ultraviolet, and extreme ultraviolet lines of S iii have been calculated using the B-spline Breit–Pauli R-matrix method. The term-dependent non-orthogonal orbitals have been employed for the accurate representation of target wave functions and the electron plus S iii target scattering system. The multiconfiguration Hartree–Fock method has been utilized for the calculation of 198 S iii fine-structure level energies belonging to the , , , and 3s3p25s configurations. The transition probabilities between fine-structure levels have also been calculated and compared with available other calculations. The close-coupling expansion includes these 198 fine-structure levels of S iii in the electron collision calculations. The effective collision strengths are calculated at electron temperatures in the range of 103–106 K for all possible transitions between the 198 fine-structure levels. The present calculation includes a larger number of levels in the close-coupling expansion and improved target description than previous calculations and should be useful for the analysis of measured spectra from various astrophysical objects. Comparison with other calculations is used to assess likely uncertainties in the existing collision and radiative rates for S iii. The collision and radiative rates are estimated to be accurate to about 20% or better for most main transitions of astrophysical importance.
