Pressure broadening of spectral lines due to plasma electrons and ions can be used as a diagnostic tool to determine temperature and electron density of a dense plasma. Here, a quantum-statistical theory, based on thermodynamic Green’s functions, is used to calculate hydrogen Lyman lines. The electronic self-energy Σe is an important input in this theory. It describes the influence of plasma electrons on bound state properties. In dense plasmas, the effect of strong, i.e. close, electron-emitter collisions can be considered by three-particle T-matrix diagrams. These diagrams are approximated with the help of an effective two-particle T-matrix, which is obtained from convergent close-coupling calculations with Debye screening, and results are compared with other theories.
