Bose–Einstein condensation of a two-parameter deformed quantum group boson gas
Abdullah Algin, Bayram Deviren
Abstract
We investigate the low temperature behaviour of a two-parameter generalized bosonic quantum gas with -symmetry, where q 1 and q 2 are real independent deformation parameters. We calculate, in the thermodynamical limit, several statistical and thermodynamical functions of the system through an -invariant bosonic Hamiltonian. In the low and high temperature limits, the specific heat of the system is obtained in terms of some functions of the deformation parameters q 1 and q 2 . At the critical temperature being higher than that of the free boson gas, the specific heat of the two-parameter generalized boson gas exhibits a λ-point transition behaviour. We also discuss the conditions under which the Bose–Einstein condensation would occur in the present two-parameter generalized boson model. However, the free boson gas results can be recovered in the limit q 1 = q 2 = 1.
