Abstract

The close-coupling method for atom-electron collisions is modified to take account of the full polarizability of the atomic states. This effect is tested on the calculations of the polarization of lithium atom resonance lines and the results are in better agreement with the measurements of Hafner and Kleinpoppen (1967).
