Photo-excitation of graphene transfers electrons from the valence band to the conduction band in a direct interband transition. The initial distribution of holes and electrons is known to be anisotropic with nodes along the direction of the light polarization. We use time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to image the initially anisotropic carrier distribution on constant energy cuts through the Dirac cone and follow its relaxation as a function of pump-probe time delay. We find that ultrafast collinear electron-electron scattering rapidly redistributes the energy among the carriers and establishes a momentum-dependent electronic temperature on time scales short compared to our experimental resolution. Momentum relaxation occurs mainly through optical phonon emission within approximately 100 femtoseconds determined from the time it takes for the electron distribution to become isotropic. Our measurements provide a complete picture of the ultrafast thermalization dynamics in photo-excited graphene.
