Cross sections have been compiled for electron-impact excitation of carbon and
oxygen ions (C II-VI and O II-VIII). A selection has been made to recommend
'best' values for use. The resulting recommended values are fitted to an
analytical formula and the fitting coefficients are given in a table. The cross
sections (in the form of collision strengths) and the rate coefficients
calculated therefrom are shown graphically. The reliability of the recommended
data is roughly estimated.
