Abstract
Collision strengths have been calculated for electron impact excitation of sodium-like TiXII for all 21 transitions amongst its lowest seven states. Configuration interaction wave functions have been used to represent the target states. The standard and no-exchangeR-matrix codes have been used to calculate the contribution of partial waves withL⩽8 andL>8 respectively. Collision strengths are tabulated at selected energies in the range 26 to 50 Ryd. Effective collision strengths are tabulated for electron temperatures in the range logT e=4.0 to logT e=6.0, withT e in K. This is the first detailed calculation on this ion in which the effects of exchange, channel couplings and short-range correlation are taken into account.
