Nonlocal electron heat transport and electron–ion energy transfer in the presence of strong collisional heating
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 June 2004
Abstract
Nonlocal electron heat transport in plasmas heated by a high-intensity laser field is investigated. We show how the heat transport is strongly modified by the super-Gaussian character of the energy distribution caused by the strong collisional heating. The change in the collisional electron–ion energy exchange due to this modification of the shape of the electron distribution function is also studied.
