Boltzmann number of 1-particle state >>number of particles Singel particle energy from Bolztman How many 1-particle states? Remember the sphere used to explain degeneracy? number of 1-particle states with an energy lower than e =number of lattice points enclosed by the sphere in the positive octant:
Many particles Boltzman energy The average energy of N particles is N times the average energy of one particle
yi1 yi2 yi3 yi2 yi2 yi3 yi4 yi5 yi6 NON Bolztmann ensembles Fermions: 2 particles cannot occupy the same quantum stateoccupation number nk can only be 0 or 1 P1,2y=-y antisymmetric Bosons: 2 particles can occupy the same quantum stateoccupation number nk can have any value P1,2y=+y symmetric
There are many ways of counting distributions, Partition functions for F or B choose Grand-Canonical Ensemble
Fermions Fermi-Dirac
Bosons from our outstanding math background … we recognize the series Bose-Einstein Combining Bose-Einstein with the Fermi-Dirac we obtain a gral. Eq.
G-canonical equations II Keep in mind that even though we started with non-interacting particles, there wavefunctions are symmetrized they are NOT INDEPENDENT
High T low r limit for n Boltzmann number of 1-particle state >>number of particles
Examples: Photon gas, an electromagnetic field in thermal equilibrium with its container Example To describe the state of the field, we need to know how many n are in each oscillator Photons are bosons n=0,1,2,3…..
cont The average number of photons in a state j… Planck distribution
