Fully kinetic simulations of high-Mach-number (HMN) perpendicular collisionless shocks are described. It is shown that electron acceleration in the cross-shock electron field can produce downstream electron temperature significantly higher than those expected for adiabatic compression. The momentum space for test electrons at Mach 6 is illustrated.
