Coefficients for calculating the second-order moments of the polarization profiles of hydrogen lines.
Abstract
In this paper we provide extensive tables of the coefficients that are needed in the calculation of the second-order moments of the polarization profiles of hydrogen lines. We cover all the transitions up to the level n=50, which is enough for many astrophysical applications. We also provide formulae which allow the calculation of the line and oscillator strengths and of the Einstein coefficients for the tabulated transitions.
