Abstract
It has been shown by Burgess that, when allowance is made for dielectronic processes, recombination rates for coronal ions are much larger than have hitherto been supposed. New calculations are made of the ionization equilibrium for iron. Although allowance for dielectronic processes results in the discrepancies being much reduced, it still appears that there may be some tendency for temperatures obtained from line-widths to be larger than those deduced from ionization theory.Keywords
