Abstract

The carbon decameter radio recombination line (RRL) shape is described by a Voigt profile, since explicit line broadening is observed in the wings. A Lorentz component line half width is determined by the method of a Lorentz and Gauss line profile fitting of a curve. Since the Lorentz line shape is described by the Stark effect and the interaction with the Galaxy non-thermal background radiation, then by comparing the Lorentz component experimental and theoretical values a medium component electron density can be calculated for an expanding CII region towards Cassiopeia A. So far as the decameter lines are formed due to the transitions between the levels with large principal quantum numbers n>600, the life time, and thus the line width are very large. The collision transition rate is described by the perturbation theory for a low temperature medium. The radius matrix elements for a highly excited atom are defined more exactly with determining the transition rates for radiation interaction and scattering.
