We investigate the effects of Lorentzian astrophysical plasmas on resonant Compton scattering of photons by the helium ground and excited states. The bound-excited states energies in the plasma environments are obtained by using highly correlated exponential wave functions in the framework of Ritz variational method. The resonance Compton scattering cross sections in Lorentzian plasmas between theand 1s2p, 1s2sand 1s3p, 1s3sand 1s3dstates are reported as a function of the spectral index and plasma parameter. The nonthermal character of the Lorentzian plasmas shows interesting features on the resonant Compton scattering cross sections.
