Beschreibung
A brief description of the five moment model of Hydrodynamics for Coulomb collisions is given. The model includes large angle collisions. The corresponding integrals are evaluated to logarithmic and constant order in the maximum impact parameter. The Bethe formula is recovered in the appropriate limit.
This model is then self-consistently coupled to a deuterium-tritium plasma of a given initial temperature to model the process of heating such a plasma by fast moving ions generated from nano-rods irradiated by femtosecond lasers.
