Numerical calculations based on the collisional-radiative model is made for
rate equations of optically thin hydrogen plasma to give the
collisional-radiative and population coefficients. Results are tabulated for
the range of plasma parameters of Te from 1000 to 256,000 K and ne from
10^6 to 10^20 per cubic cm. Behavior of all the coefficients is analyzed
as a function of electron density and as a result the asymptotic expressions
of the coefficients at low and high electron-density limits as well as the
approximate expressions of the critical electron densities for these
asymptotic behaviors are obtained in terms of the rate coefficients for
atomic transitions. Effects of trapping of resonance radiation on the
coefficients are discussed.
