<div class="elementToProof">Dear Users and Developers,</div>
<div class="elementToProof"><br>
</div>
<div class="elementToProof">We are trying to observe the temperature equilibration in a simple simulation where the electrons have some initial temperature and the ions should gain thermal energy during the simulation.</div>
<div class="elementToProof"><br>
</div>
<div class="elementToProof">However, when I am using the Spitzer regime, the ion temperature becomes equal to the electron's temperature already at the very beginning of the simulation. I set the initial density low and the temperature high to make the heat
exchange slower but it does not help...</div>
<div class="elementToProof"><br>
</div>
<div class="elementToProof"> I attached the whole Sim directory and the par file, so you can reproduce the problem. It is basically a modified Sod example. I use the following setup command:</div>
