Abstract

An algebraic approximation for a line halfwidth at the half- maximum ((delta) ) was obtained from the calculated values of (delta) , which depends on the collision broadening and narrowing parameters and the Doppler halfwidth. Both the hard and soft collision models describing the effect of velocity-changing collisions were approximated. The mean discrepancy between the approximated and exact values of (delta) does not exceed 0.1 divided by 0.15%. A simple criterion was developed which allows one to judge about the correspondence of the experimental dependence of (delta) on buffer gas pressure to hard or soft collision model.
