Abstract
We have carried out calculations of the excitation of the 1(1,3D) and 4(1,3 D) states of magnesium by electron impact using the relativistic distorted- wave approximation. The effects of configuration interaction in the represe ntation of the atomic states were investigated. Results are presented for d ifferential cross sections and Stokes parameters for electron impact at 20 and 40 eV.
