The thermodynamic properties of the ideal fermi gas

Yin Guo-sheng

Published Jan 1, 2002• 0 citations

Abstract

They are discussed from a viewpoint of quantum statistics. It is found that the ideal Fermi gas tends to the classical limit at high temperature and exists in the way of a Fermi ball at low temperature.

Thermodynamic functions of the Fermi gas at arbitrary temperatures

Yu. M. Poluéktov, A. A. Soroka

Thermodynamic functions of the ideal Fermi gas at arbitrary temperatures are calculated using the standard Fermi-Stoner functions. The properties of the Fermi-Stoner functions are analyzed. The limiting cases of low-temperature and classical limits with taking into account quantum corrections and the special case of zero chemical potential are considered.

Quantum ideal gases: Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein statistics

Mark E. Tuckerman

Abstract Chapter 11 presents a statistical mechanical treatment of the quantum ideal gases, i.e., the ideal Boltzmann, fermion, and boson gases. The discussion begins with the microscopic description and the solution of the eigenvalue problem for a quantum ideal gas. It is argued that calculating the partition function is most readily accomplished in the grand canonical ensemble using a second-quantized formulation. When the particles are distinguishable, the equation of state is identical to that of a classical ideal gas. For fermions and bosons, however, the problem of computing thermodynamic properties is significantly more complex and can only be solved exactly in certain limits. Away from these limits approximations are needed and are discussed in detail. The relevant distributions - the Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein distributions are derived. The local density approximation of density functional theory is derived for the ideal electron gas. For the ideal boson gas, the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation is discussed

Quantum Phase Space Approach to the Ideal Fermi and Bose Gases

In this work, improvements are introduced to the current models of the ideal Fermi gas and the ideal Bose gas by incorporating the quantum nature of phase space, which is directly linked to the uncertainty principle. These improved models build upon the recently developed concepts of quantum phase space (QPS) and the QPS representation of quantum mechanics. The Hamiltonian operator for a gas particle and its eigenstates are first determined, and quantum statistical mechanics is used to derive the thermodynamic properties of the ideal gas. Analytic expressions for thermodynamic quantities—including the grand canonical potential, particle number, internal energy, von Neumann entropy, and pressure—are derived, along with the corresponding thermodynamic equations of state for both bosons and fermions. These corrections are particularly significant at low temperatures and in confined volumes, where quantum effects related to system geometry, such as shape and size, become significant. The results also establish a direct link between thermodynamic functions and the quantum statistical variances of momentum. Importantly, the improved models recover well-known classical relations of the ideal gas in the high-temperature and large-volume limits, ensuring consistency with classical physics. By addressing quantum corrections and their thermodynamic implications, this work provides a foundation for further applications in nanoscale systems, quantum gases, low-temperature physics, ultracold physics, and astrophysics.
