Abstract :
The electron energy distribution functions for electron thermalization in helium and argon afterglow plasmas have been calculated taking into account electron–neutral and electron–electron collisions. This work shows that electron–electron collisions can lead to the Maxwellization of the electron energy distribution function and thus to different rates of electron thermalization.
