Thermostatistics of q-deformed boson gas

arXiv:quant-ph/9912111 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.61.1218

Abstract

We show that a natural realization of the thermostatistics of q-bosons can be built on the formalism of q-calculus and that the entire structure of thermodynamics is preserved if we use an appropriate Jackson derivative in place of the ordinary thermodynamics derivative. This framework allows us to obtain a generalized q-boson entropy which depends on the q-basic number. We study the ideal q-boson gas in the thermodynamic limit which is shown to exhibit Bose-Einstein condensation with higher critical temperature and discontinuous specific heat.
