Scientific paper

The Oppenheimer-Penny theory, as developed by Percival and Seaton (1958), is applied to calculate the polarization of Lα radiations from hydrogen-like ions when the impact electrons are distributed such that their probability is more in the regions close to the magnetic field. The degrees of polarization are averaged over the energy of non-thermal electrons generated during the initial phase of solar flares. It is found that the degrees of polarization do not depend on the atomic number of the ion.
