Question: Using the non-Fokker-Planck arguments outlined in the text, compute an estimate of the electron-electron equilibration rate, and show that it agrees with the Fokker- Planck

Using the non-Fokker-Planck arguments outlined in the text, compute an estimate of the electron-electron equilibration rate, and show that it agrees with the Fokker- Planck result, Eq. (20.23a), to within a factor of 2.


Equation 20.23a.

-3/2 Vee = 1/2 = nocln ^ (kurs) In A ee 2

-3/2 Vee = 1/2 = nocln ^ (kurs) In A ee 2 /2 mec -3/2 T In A n - (1-) (FK) (6) S- 3) ( IK 10 m = 2.6 x 10-5 (20.23a)
