Abstract The impact theory of spectral line broadening is used to obtain complete profiles for radio recombination lines broadened by electron and proton impact. Electron impact dominates but proton impact becomes increasingly significant as Δ n increases. Thus these new calculations essentially confirm previous results and so a longstanding discrepancy between observation and theory remains unresolved.
