摘要: We present measurements of electron-ion temperature equilibration in proton-heated tantalum, under warm dense matter conditions. Our results agree with theoretical predictions for metals calculated using input data from ab initio simulations. However, the fast relaxation observed experiment contrasts much longer times found proton heated carbon, indicating that energy flow pathways are far being fully understood.
