Description

The R-matrix method is used to calculate electron impact collision strengths for various transitions in Ti XIV from its ground state (2P0). Extensive configuration interaction wavefunctions are used to represent the lowest twelve target states which are included in the calculations. Finally effective collision strengths have been calculated for electron temperature in the range (5x104-106 K) by assuming a Maxwellian electron velocity distribution of the incident electrons.
