Dielectronic recombination in the interstellar medium.
Abstract
Dielectric recombination onto heavy ions in the hot diffuse interstellar medium could give rise to detectable recombination lines in the range 50-200 MHz. Such lines would appear as absorption features in the spectra of distant galactic radio sources.
