Abstract
The thermal relaxation time () for the degenerate electron plasma has been calculated by incorporating non-Fermi liquid (NFL) corrections both for the thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity. Perturbative results are presented by making expansion in with next to leading order corrections (NLO). We see that the NLO NFL corrections further reduce the decrease in relaxation time due to the leading order (LO) correction.
