A binary collision Monte Carlo model for temperature relaxation in multicomponent plasmas

Particle simulations with Monte Carlo collision models have been widely used to efficiently solve Coulomb collisions in plasma systems. A binary collision Monte Carlo model which has been proposed previously provides more accurate results than the commonly used Nanbu’s model for electron-ion tempera...
