The XUY (90–150 Å) and X-ray (10–25 Å) spectra of solar flares are rich in lines from the highly ionized iron ions. Atomic data have been calculated for Fe XVIII (Bhatia, unpublished), Fe XIX (Loulergue et al., 1984, Bhatia and Mason, 1984), Fe XX (Mason and Bhatia, 1980, 1983), Fe XXI (Mason et al., 1979), Fe XXII (Mason and Storey, 1980), Fe XXIII (Bhatia and Mason, 1981), Fe XXIV (Hayes, 1979). The University College London computer package was used. This consists of an atomic structure code (SUPERSTRUCTURE, Eissner et al., 1974); a ‘distorted wave’ electron scattering program (COLLDW, Eissner and Seaton, 1972); a ‘Bethe’ approximation electron scattering program (Burgess and Shoerey, unpublished); a program for obtaining electron collision strength in pair coupling from R matrices in LS coupling (JAJOM, Saraph, 1972); a proton scattering program (Bely and Faucher, 1970) and a program for obtaining level populations and intensity ratios.
