TL;DR: The energy distribution of electrons photoemitted from a hot, solid-density plasma created by photoexciting a Ag surface with two collinear, p-polarized, 90 fs pulses was measured via photoelectron time-of-flight spectroscopy as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The energy distribution of electrons photoemitted from a hot, solid-density plasma created by photoexciting a Ag surface with two collinear, p-polarized, 90 fs pulses was measured via photoelectron time-of-flight spectroscopy. At zero time delay the average photoelectron energy corresponds to several 105 K and drops to half this value when the time delay exceeds 180 fs. Time-resolved reflectivity studies, under similar excitation conditions, indicate electron heating is pulsewidth limited, but recovery caused by electron cooling and surface expansion occurs over several picoseconds.
