“…In the literature, scaling laws are found for the hot-electron temperature in keV, determined with a variety of measurement methods, typically in the form of where c T is a constant with the unit keV/(µm 2 W/cm 2 ), λ L is the laser wavelength in micrometers, and the irradiance in the center of the incident Gaussian beam averaged over the pulse duration in W/cm 2 . The exponent s is in the range of 0.3-0.5 and varies for different experimental conditions as found in [11,24,[27][28][29][30], for example. It is seen that the hot-electron temperature only depends on the laser wavelength and the irradiance.…”
