Using density of states D(E)=(2s+1)丑蝇0, which generalizes equation (9-27) to account for multiple allowed spin states (see Exercise 52), the definition N丑蝇0/(2s+1)=and N=0N(E)D(E)dE. Solve for Bin distributions (9-32) and (9-33) careful use of will cut your work by about half. Then plug back in and show that for a system of simple harmonic oscillators, the distributions become (E)BE=1eE/kBT1e/kBT1andN(E)FD=1eE/kBTe+/kBT1+1.

You will need the following integral:0(Be21)1dz=ln(11B).

BFD=1e/kBT1BBE=11e/kBT

Step by step solution

01

Concept used

The Bose-Einstein statistics:

N(E)=1BeE/kBT1

The Fermi-Dirac statistics:

N(E)=1BeE/kBT+1.

02

Write normalization condition 

The normalization condition writes:

N=0N(E)D(E)dE

Where, dE is the energy range, and D(E)is the density of states which in this problem, takes the form:

D(E)=2s+10

Here,N(E) is the occupation number, and depending on the type of particle, follows the form:

N(E)=1BeE/kBT1,

Let z=EkBT, then we havedz=dEkBTdE=kBTdz.

Performing a change of variables, the integrand becomes a function ofz:

N=2s+100(Bez1)1(kBTdz)=kBT(2s+1)00(Bez1)1dz

03

Put values into the expression 

Notice that 0(Bez1)dzisafamiliarintegralwithananalyticalvalueof:

0(Bez1)dz=ln(11/B)

N=kBT(2s+1)0(ln(11/B))=kBT(2s+1)0ln(11/B)

04

Solve the expression for fermions 

Solving for B, we thus obtain its expression depending on which type of particle it is. For fermions, BFDis thus:

N=kBT(2s+1)0ln(1+1/BFD)ln(1+1/BFD)=N丑蝇02s+11kBT

Setting=N0/(2s+1)we get:

ln(1+1/BFD)=EkBTeln(1+1/BFD)=eE/kBT1+1/BFD=eE/kBT1BFD=eE/kBT1BFD=1eE/kBT1

05

Solve the expression for bosons

For bosons,BBE is thus:

N=kBT(2s+1)0ln(11/BBE)ln(11/BBE)=N02s+11kBT

Setting E=N0/(2s+1)we get:

ln(11/BFD)=kBTeln(11/BBE)=e/kBT11/BBE=e/kBT1BBE=1e/kBTBBE=11e/kBT

06

Calculate the occupation number 

Plugging the expression forBFDinto eq. (3), the occupation number associated with a system of fermionic oscillators having intrinsic spin is thus:

N(E)FD=1eE/kBTe/kBT1+1

Finally, plugging the expression for BBEinto eq. (3), the occupation number associated with a system of bosonic oscillators having intrinsic spin is thus:

N(E)BE=1eE/kBT1e/kBT1

BFD=1e/kBT1BBE=11e/kBT

There are more permutations of particle labels when two particles have energy0 and two have energy1 than when three particles have energy 0and one has energy . 2(The total energiesarethe same.) From this observation alone argue that the Boltzmann distribution should be lower than the Bose-Einstein at the lower energy level.

The Fermi energy in a quantum gas depends inversely on the volume, Basing your answer on Simple Chapter 5 type quantum mechanics (not such quaint notions as squeezing classical particles of finite volume into a container too small). Explain why.

Copper has a density of8.9103kg/m3, and no photoelectrons are ejected from it if the wavelength of the incident light is greater than8.9103kg/m3(in the ultraviolet range). How deep is the well in which its conduction electrons--one per atom-are bound?

The electrons鈥 contribution to the heat capacity of a metal is small and goes to 0as T0. We might try to calculate it via the total internal energy, localid="1660131882505" U=EN(E)D(E)dE, but it is one of those integrals impossible to do in closed form, and localid="1660131274621" N(E)FDis the culprit. Still, we can explain why the heat capacity should go to zero and obtain a rough value.

(a) Starting withN(E)FDexpressed as in equation (34), show that the slope N(E)FDdEatE=EFis-1(4kBT).

(b) Based on part (a), the accompanying figure is a good approximation to N(E)FDwhen Tis small. In a normal gas, such as air, whenTis raised a little, all molecules, on average, gain a little energy, proportional to kBT. Thus, the internal energy Uincreases linearly with T, and the heat capacity, UT, is roughly constant. Argue on the basis of the figure that in this fermion gas, as the temperature increases from 0to a small value T, while some particles gain energy of roughly kBT, not all do, and the number doing so is also roughly proportional to localid="1660131824460" T. What effect does this have on the heat capacity?

(c)Viewing the total energy increase as simply U= (number of particles whose energy increases) (energy change per particle) and assuming the density of states is simply a constant Dover the entire range of particle energies, show that the heat capacity under these lowest-temperature conditions should be proportional to kBREFT. (Trying to be more precise is not really worthwhile, for the proportionality constant is subject to several corrections from effects we ignore).

The Stirling approximation.J!2JJ+1/2e-J, is very handy when dealing with numbers larger than about100 . Consider the following ratio: the number of ways Nparticles can be evenly divided between two halves of a room to the number of ways they can be divided with60%on the right and40%on the left.

(a) Show, using the Stirling approximation, that the ratio is approximately4046065Nfor largeN.

(b) Explain how this fits with the claim that average behaviours become more predictable in large systems.
