The relative intensity of two CI lines at 1993.6 โข and 1657.4 A, observed in the limb spectrum of the sun, is a factor 2.6 โข 10 a larger than that expected if both lines were optically thin. It is shown that the observed intensity ratio may be explained in terms of the transfer of photons from 2 165

โฆ Synopsis
Equilibrium population of Fextv levels in coronal conditions was calculated including configurations 3sZ3p, 3s3p ~, 3s23d, 3p 3, 3s3p3d, 3s~4s, 3s24p, 3s24d, 3s~4f Relative populations of selected levels are given in Table VII. Figure 1 shows the dependence of relative intensities of the strongest lines on electron density. Certain line ratios can be used for the determination of Ne. E.g., at T= 2 โข 106 K and with a dilution factor 0.4, the intensity ratio of 2211.3 and 2219.0 changes by a factor of 65 if No increases from 107 to 101I (Table VIII). Cascades from the 3s3p3d and 3p~ configurations are important in the population of some levels of 3s3p 2 (Table VI). A possibility of identification of additional lines in the solar spectrum is indicated.

Some line identifications in solar disk and limb spectra are proposed on the basis of recent laboratory and theoretical results reported in the literature, including allowed lines of Mg I and Fe XlV in the EUV spectrum and an expected forbidden line of FexvI1 near 1190 ~.
