Abstract
This paper reviews the various population and depopulation mechanisms that establish the statistical equilibrium of atoms and shows how departures from LTE for level occupation numbers translate in non-LTE effects for spectral lines.
This research was supported by the RF President with a grant on Leading Scientific Schools NSh-784.2006.2.
