Abstract
The time-dependent distribution function of two different trapped ions when one of them is cooled by a laser field and the second one is coo led sympathetically is investigated using the Fokker-Planck equation. The limiting cooling temperatures of both ions are found to be equal t o the limiting cooling temperature of single laser cooled ions.
