Abstract
We provide corrections to the data in Sholin’s tables from his paper in Optics and Spectroscopy 26 (1969) 27. Since his data was used numerous times by various authors to calculate the asymmetry of hydrogenic spectral lines in plasmas, our corrections should motivate revisions of the previous calculations of the asymmetry and its comparison with the experimental asymmetry, and thus should have a practical importance.

We provide corrections to the data in Sholin’s tables from his paper in Optics and Spectroscopy
The input data presented in Sholin’s tables from paper [1] was used numerous times by various authors to calculate the asymmetry of hydrogenic spectral lines in plasmas. (For the latest advances in the theory of the asymmetry we refer to papers [2,3] and references therein)
Summary
The comparison shows that in Sholin’s table there are typographic errors in quadrup (±3). 60 (instead of 80) and in entered as −206 (instead of −208). For Ly-epsilon (n = 4), Equation (2) becomes:. The comparison shows quadrup errors in ∆k (±2) entered as 108 (instead of 132). Atoms 2018, 6, 9; doi:10.3390/atoms6010009 quadrup (±2) = 132, ∆k (±3) = −228, that in Sholin’s table there are www.mdpi.com/journal/atoms
