Example of hydrogenic bnl values at low densities (left panel) and high densities (right panel). A statistical distribution of the l sublevels is attained at levels as low as ∼40. For lower levels, radiative processes dominate the level population. At low density (left panel), radiative processes dominate even at high n levels.
