Abstract
The electric field and the potential in the electron gas temperature jump problem in a metal under the influence of temperature gradient that is normal to the surface are constructed. The electron scattering from the metal surface is assumed to be specular-diffusive, and no restrictions are imposed on the coefficient of specular reflection.
