Oscillator strengths and collision strengths for neutral sulfur

Configuration-interaction target wave functions are used in the present calculation of collision strengths, for electron impact excitation of neutral sulfur from the group 3p4 3P state to excited states 3p3 4s 3S0, 3p3(4S0)3d 3D0, and 3p3 4s 3P0, in a close coupling approximation for the energy range up to 1,000,000 K. Configuration-interaction target wave functions are used in the calculation of collision strengths, and oscillator strengths for various triplet transitions are reported together with transitions between 3p4 1D and 3p4 1S and other singlet-excited states.
