This research presents non-perturbative EEDF models for low-temperature plasmas, revealing insights into electron behavior and thermodynamics.

Analytic scaling relations for electron heating emerge, demonstrating distinct EEDF forms due to collisionality.
Non-perturbative solutions show bimodal behavior in the kinetic limit and generalized exponential forms in the hydrodynamic limit.
Renormalization group techniques were applied to the kinetic operator, establishing a framework for understanding plasma self-organization.
The stable RG fixed point links the system's long-time behavior to minimum entropy production, providing a thermodynamic foundation.

Saucedo et al. (2025) studied this question.
