The traditional theory of plasma line broadening is re-examined to correct for phenom-enological assumptions regarding charge correlations. Conditions for static ions are assumed, and the ion microfield distribution is introduced without neglecting ion-electron correlations, and with a precise definition for the ion field at the radiator. Radiator and plasma subsystems are defined so as to make a second order calculation of electron broadening valid for the case of high Z radiators. The electron broadening operator is identified in terms of the fluctuation of the electron density at the radiator, averaged over the entire plasma constrained by a given value for the ion microfield.
