We describe the effect that new atomic calculations, including fully relativistic R-matrix calculations of collisional excitation rates and level-specific dielectronic and radiative recombination rates, have on line ratios from the astrophysically significant ion Ne IX. The new excitation rates systematically change some predicted Ne IX line ratios by 25% at temperatures at or below the temperature of maximum emissivity (4x10⁶ K), while the new recombination rates lead to systematic changes at higher temperatures. The new line ratios are shown to agree with observations of Capella and σ² CrB significantly better than older line ratios, showing that 25%-30% accuracy in atomic rates is inadequate for high-resolution X-ray observations from existing spectrometers.
