••
TL;DR: The detailed comparison of the experimental Ga spectrum and the spectrum simulated by the FLYCHK code indicates two significant discrepancies, the transition energy of a Li-like dielectronic satellite and the calculated intensity of a He-like line, that should lead to improvements in the kinetics codes used to simulate the X-ray spectra from highly-charged ions.
