Abstract

Electron heat transport is studied for a variety of presumed non-Maxwellian distribution functions in the presence of steep temperature gradients. For a representative group of distribution functions the heat flow in the region lambda _T/L_T approximately=0.1 relevant for laser-plasma interaction ( lambda _T is the thermal mean free path, L_T is the temperature gradient scale length) is much smaller than the free streaming value.
