The process of dielectronic recombination has been the subject of intense theoretical activity mainly because of the pioneering work by Burgess (1964), who demonstrated that this process can be the dominant recombination mechanism for multiply-charged atomic ions in low-density high-temperature astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. Recent attempts to measure dielectronic recombination cross sections and rate coefficients have renewed interest in the development of a rigorous quantum-mechanical theory of the resonant electron-ion recombination process. A precise theory is clearly required for the interpretation of the dielectronic satellite lines, which have been found to be of great value in the spectroscopic determination of temperatures, densities, and departures from ionization equilibrium.
