Maxwellian-averaged collision strengths are presented for ions in the magnesium isoelectronic sequence: S V, Ar VII, Ca IX, CR XIII, Fe XV, and Ni XVII. Results are given for 120 transitions in each ion including fine structure, involving the 16 levels 3s/sup 2/ /sup 1/S/sub 0/, 3s3p(/sup 3/P/sub 0,1,2/, /sup 1/P/sub 1/), 3p/sup 2/(/sup 3/P/sub 0,1,2/, /sup 1/D/sub 2/, /sup 1/S/sub 0/), 3s3d(/sup 3/D/sub 1,2,3/, /sup 1/D/sub 2/), and 3s4s(/sup 3/S/sub 1/, /sup 1/S/sub 0/). The collision strengths are obtained in the distorted-wave approximation. The rate parameters are tabulated at a range of temperatures for various applications in laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. copyright 1988 Academic Press, Inc.
