We performed line profile measurements of the 2s-2p resonance transitions in B III in order to test quantum-mechanical (close-coupling) theory. The experiment was carried out using the well-diagnosed gas-liner pinch discharge where plasma parameters are determined independently by 90^∘{} Thomson scattering. The experimental Stark widths are about twice the five-state close-coupling results. However, we find good agreement with semiclassical calculations in the electron-impact approximation. {} 1996 The American Physical Society.
