27. In the present case, the factor (Formula presented) depends on the product (Formula presented) Therefore, an increase of the nonequilibrium phonon population (Formula presented) can be also interpreted as an increased coupling (Formula presented) Of course, the equilibrium solution (Formula presented) which depends through (Formula presented) only on (Formula presented) is different in the two cases. But in our study, focused on the induced change of spectra, we can assume for simplicity that (Formula presented)
