“…11,33,35,36,38 A temperature equation is applied to describe low-energy electrons, which reach (nearly) thermal equilibrium already during the first few femtoseconds after the beginning of the laser pulse, following the "bump-on-hot-tail" distribution. 11,33,[44][45][46] The high-energy-electron and the low-energy-electron domains are interconnected, as electrons can gain or lose energy and go from one domain to another. This forms the source/sink terms for the temperature equation, 47,48 as the changing number and energy of low-energy electrons directly affect their temperature.…”
