3 1 Probability moments definitions with the probability distribution f(n) we find the generating function: F (x) N f(n)x n n0 then the moments of statistics are 1. moment n x F (x) x1 mean value 2. moment ( n) 2 2 xf (x) x1 x n variance 3. moment m 3 3 xf (x) x1 x ( n) 2 1. moment of the square value: n 2 2 xf (x) x1 + x F (x) x1 then we find for the variance (2. moment) ( n) 2 n 2 n 2 example: energy F (β) ρ c β n e βe β n 1 e βe β n Z c Z c mean value E β ln Z c internal energy (1) variance ( n) 2 β 2 ln Z c (2) 3. moment m 3 β 3 ln Z c (3) 3

5 2.2.2 maximum of S The entropy S is maximum if all ρ n s are equal. In a spin system for example, if all spins are aligned. Maximum Value: S max k B ln g (12) 2.3 extensive, intensive variable Quantities are called extensive if the enlargement of the system enlarges the quantity too (mass), and intensive if the quantity stays the same if the system is enlarged (temperature, pressure, densities). So for one state-variable applies, if the system is enlarged by a factor λ: examples: x is extensive, if x λx i.e. f(λx) λf(x) x is intensive, if x x extensive {energy, mass, number of particles, heat capacity, entropy, volume} intensive {energy-density, density of particles, specific heat capacity, temperature, pressure } 2.4 homogeneous systems from the extensivity of the entropy S(λE, λv, λn) λs(e, V, N) follows S 1 T E + p T V µ T N which is called the Duham-Gibbs relation in this way E T S pv + µn (13) For the grand canonical ensemble J E T S µn we derive then J(T, V, µ) p(t, µ)v (14) and for the Gibbs potential G(T, p, µ) µ(p, T )N (15) 2.5 thermodynamic potentials thermodynamic force The temperature T is the driving force for the heat and entropy exchange and the pressure p is the driving force for the volume exchange. Thus T and p are thermodynamic forces which lead to a change in state E(S, V, N). 5

Then Ω(E) φ(e + δe) φ(e).

The relation to the macroscopic thermodynamics is as follows: S k B ln Ω k B ln φ (43) F k B T ln Z c (44) J k B T ln Z gc (45) From the full differentials can by partial differentiation the variables E, p, µ, N be found: ds 1 T de p T dv µ dn (46) T df S dt p dv + µ dn (47) dj S dt p dv N dµ (48) So the derivation of the macroscopic structure from the microscopic structure, can be schematised as follows Ω(E, V, N) S(E, V, N) all thermodynamic (49) H(V, N) E j (V, N) Z c (T, V, N) F (T, V, N) Z gc (T, V, µ) J(T, V, µ) relations 8

12 6 ideal quantum gases 6.1 Bose particles We have noninteracting, indistinguishable particles. To proceed we define their variables: number of particles N states λ set of occupation {n λ } total energy of set {n λ } E{n λ } eigenvalues ε λ (energy of particle in state λ) occupation number n λ 0, 1, 2,... (particles in state λ) with N λ n λ (68) E{n λ } λ ε λ n λ (69) Example: {n λ } {1, 0, 3, 2, 4, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0,...} E{n λ } 1ε 1 + 3ε 3 + 2ε 4 + 4ε 5 + 1ε 7 In order to determine the partition function we sum over all possible configurations of occupation numbers {n λ }. According to the definition of the canonical ensemble the number of particles are fixed: Z c (N) P {nλ} λ n λn e βe{n λ} This is difficult do evaluate because N is not necessarily known and of a very high magnitude, which makes the constrain hard to satisfy. To overcome this problem one usually employs the Grand Canonical partition function, where the particle number is not fixed. Thus we have to sum over the number of particles. ( Zc (N) e βµn) (70) Z B gc N N P {n λ } λ n λn e β(e{n λ} µn) 12
13 by replacing E{n λ } and N by their sums where goes the first sum?? e β(p λ ε λn λ µ P λ n λ) e β(p λ (ε λ µ)n λ) N {nλ} {n λ } λ e β(ε λ µ)n λ This is the sum over all possible configurations of occupation numbers, summed over all states. This way each occupation number will change its number from zero to infinity. Thus we can rearrange the summation {n λ } ( ) e β(ε λ µ) n λ λ e β(ε λ µ)n λ λ n λ 0 n λ 0 by using the rule of geometrical sum we get finally the grand canonical partition function Zgc B ( ) 1 e β(ε λ µ) 1 (71) λ potential J B (T, V, µ) k B T ln Zgc B k B T ln ( 1 e β(εn µ)) (72) n mean occupation number n B µ J B (T, V, µ) 1 e β(εn µ) 1 (73) 6.2 Fermi particles partition function Zgc F e β(ε λ µ)n λ λ n λ 0,1 ( ) 1 + e β(ε n µ) (74) n potential J F (T, V, µ) k B T ln Zgc F k B T ln ( 1 + e β(εn µ)) (75) n 13
