Consider the ideal Fermi gas of Exercise 4.18 in thehigh temperature and /or low density regime
(a) Show that
(b) Use this result together with the Fermi distribution for {np} to deduce the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution
Where p stands for momentum and
(c) Show that the thermal wavelength,can be viewed as an average De Broglie wavelength since
(d) Show that
Why does a finite value oflead to deviations from the classical ideal gas law? Why should you expect the quan-tum deviations to vanish when
