Du, J. Jiang, C. Dong] Electron impact excitation cross sections of argon from the 3p 54s matastable states to the excited states of 3p 54p configuration were calculated by using the fully relativistic distorted wave method, based on the multi-configuration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) theory. The influence of electron correlation effects on cross sections were discussed in detail. For low energy impact, it is found that the electron correlation effects have a large influence on the cross sections and make the cross sections smaller. However, this influence become smaller with the increasing of incident electron energy. The present results are in good agreement with the experiments of Boffard etal. [Phys. Rev. A 59, 2749 (1999)] in most cases. EDP Sciences, SIF, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2011 Du G.
