Abstract
Collisional ionization rates for C IV, N V, and O VI as well as for O V and Ne VII are deduced from the time history of spectral lines emitted by these ions in a hot plasma. The plasma (in the electron temperature range 100-260 eV) is produced in a 15-kJ theta-pinch device, and it is analyzed using the light-scattering technique. The results are consistent with theoretical calculations for O VI and with a semiempirical formula based on theoretical calculations for hydrogenic ions but smaller by factors 1.5-2.
