Molecular-dynamic calculation of the relaxation of the electron energy distribution function in a plasma.

A molecular-dynamic (MD) code is used to calculate the temporal evolution of nonequilibrium electron distribution functions in plasmas. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first time that a molecular-dynamic code has been used to treat this problem using a macroscopic number of particles. Th...
