  We exploit the AdS/CFT correspondence to investigate thermalization in an N=2
strongly coupled gauge theory including massless fundamental matter (quark).
More precisely, we consider the response of a zero temperature state of the
gauge theory under variation of an external electric field leading to a
time-dependent current. The holographic dual of the above set-up is given by
introducing a time-dependent electric field on the probe D7-brane embedded in
an AdS_5 X S^5 background. In the dual gravity theory, due to a time-dependent
electric field an apparent horizon forms on the brane which, according to
AdS/CFT dictionary, is the counterpart of the thermalization process in the
gauge theory. We classify different functions for time-dependent electric field
and study their effect on the apparent horizon formation. In the case of pulse
functions where the electric field varies from zero to zero, apart from
non-equilibrium phase, we observe that two apparent horizons form on the brane.
On the gauge theory side, it means that the state of the gauge theory
experiences two different temperatures during the time evolution.
