25. R.C. Hilborn: Am. J. Phys. 50, 982 (1982). The relation given by Hilborn includes an additional factor of 3 on the right-hand side. This discrepancy does not affect temperatures derived using (1)-(4). which depend only on relative line intensities, but does affect theoretical saturation intensities. The missing 3 may result from using a relation between the B coefficient and the absorption cross section that assumes a directed radiation field, while Hilborn's version of (5) is for an isotropic field
