Summary:This paper presents a calculation of the intensity distribution of a spectral line perturbed by interactions with foreign atoms. The calculation is based on the statistical version of the Jabłoński theory developed for the Lennard-Jones interaction potential. The calculated line profile shows a distinct satellite on the red wing, at a frequency b and a trace of another band at about 2 b, where b is the depth of the difference potential. The positions of these bands are in good agreement with previously reported experimental data for the Hg 2537 Å resonance line broadened by krypton. It is shown that the present method describes both the core of the broadened line and its far red wing with the satellite structure.
