Abstract

Close-coupling calculations are carried out using the R-matrix method for the excitation of a number of states of boronlike carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen by electron impact. The ten lowest LS states of

C^{+}

and the eight lowest states of

N^{2 +}

and

O^{3 +}

are considered in the eigenfunction expansions. Including fine structure the collision strengths are calculated for all transitions among the states 2
