Abstract
The dielectronic recombination rate coefficients of  $\ion{N}{v}$ and $\ion{Ne}{viii}$ ions have been measured at a heavy-ion storage ring. The investigated energy ranges covered all dielectronic recombination resonances attached to $2{\rm s} \rightarrow 2{\rm p}$ ( $\Delta n=0$) core excitations. The rate coefficients in a plasma were derived and parameterized by using a convenient fit formula. The experimentally derived rate coefficients were then compared to theoretical data. In addition the influence of external electric fields with field strengths up to 1300 V/cm on the dielectronic recombination rate coefficient was investigated.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
