Abstract New and improved collision strengths and Maxwellian-averaged rate coefficients for temperatures between 1000 and 40,000 K are presented for all the prominent transitions in the spectra of C II, N III, and O IV. The collision strengths show extensive autoionization structures that are delineated in detail and which enhance the rate coefficients for several transitions by a considerable amount. Maxwellian-averaged collision strengths are calculated for all possible fine-structure transitions along the states included in the eigenfunction expansion of the target ion. All calculations are carried out in the close-coupling approximation using the R-matrix method as adapted for the Opacity Project.
