Translated from Zh. Eksp. Teor. Fiz., Pis'ma Red.; 18: No. 1, 46-49(5 Jul 1973). An expression is derived for heat flow in a plasma in which the electron mean free path exceeds the characteristic scale of the inhomogeneity. This expression is used to derive a formula for the electron temperature in a plasma corona as a function of the laser power. (auth)
