Two important recent developments in Stark broadening are presented in this work: The first describes the Frequency Separation Technique (FST), which is motivated by the standard electron-ion separation and has important applications in that, coupled to any of a variety of methods capable of treating the intermediate ion-dynamical regime: (but not capable of treating ion impact), presents a unified and practical solution to the ion-dynamical problem. That is, this technique allows the relaxation of the quasistatic approximation. The second describes recent improvements that allow the accurate calculation of electron impact widths.
