Scientific paper

Recent R-matrix calculations of O VII electron excitation rates by Tayal and Kingston are used to determine the theoretical emission-line ratios R1 = I(1s2 1S-ls3p1P)/I(1s2 1S-ls2p1P) and R2 = I(1s2 1S-ls4p1P)/ I(1s2 1S-ls2p1P). These ratios are found to vary by factors of 3.3 and 4.9, respectively, between Te = 6 x 1O5 and 2 x 106 K. However, G = [I(1s2 1S-1s2s3S) + I(1s2 1S-ls2p3P)]/I(1s2 1S-ls2p1P), a commonly used temperature diagnostic for He-like ions, only varies by a factor of 1.8. Electron temperatures derived using observed values of R1 and R2 from P78-1 satellite spectra of solar flares and active regions are in good agreement and compare favorably with those deduced from G.
