This standardized document follows the rules of the Standard Description for Astronomical Catalogues. For those having to work on this catalogue using FORTRAN programs, this ReadMe file can be transformed into a f77-compliant program which reads the files making up this catalogue, in two versions: either a f77 program loading whole files into arrays, or a f77-program reading each data file line by line.

Abstract:
    New collision strengths have been calculated for 990 transitions among
    45 fine structure n=2 and n=3 levels of Fe XXII. The relativistic
    Breit-Pauli formulation of the R-matrix method was employed in the
    close coupling approximation, with radiation damping of autoionizing
    resonances included for the first time in the calculations of
    excitation rate coefficients. It is found that, at low temperatures,
    the relativistic effects considerably enhance rate coefficients for
    the intercombination transitions, and the radiation damping effect
    reduces those for a few transitions. It is also found that resonances
    due to coupling with the n=3 levels significantly enhance rate
    coefficients for the transitions to low-lying levels at intermediate
    and high temperatures, and for the transitions to the n=2 high-lying
    levels at all temperatures. It is expected that the new data,
    tabulated at a wide range of temperatures, would lead to a revision of
    the spectral diagnostics of Fe XXII in laboratory and astrophysical
    sources, in particular the X-ray spectra observed from solar flares
    and tokamaks.
