NOT FOR EXAMINATION:
MAXWELL BOLTZ MANN STATISTICS: ( CLASSICAL STATISTICS )
1. This is based on classical theory only particle character is considered.
2. This is applicable to distinguishable particles..
Distribution function
The priori probability that ‘ ni ‘ particles fall simultaneously in the ‘ gi ‘ states is ( gi) ni
. The priori probability that ‘ n2 ‘ particles fall simultaneously in the ‘ g2 ‘ states is ( gi) n2
.The priori probability for the distribution of ‘ N’ particles among ‘ gi’ states such that ‘ n1’
particles in the state’ g1’ , ‘n2’ particles in state’ g2’ etc is given by
G = (g1) n1 (g2)n2 (g3)n3
The number of ways in which ‘n1’ particles out of ‘N’ particles may fall in the first state is
N cn 1 = N !
n1!×(N−n1)!
The number of ways in which ’ n2’ particles out of remaining’ (N - n1) ‘ particles may fall in
the second state is
(N- n1) cn 2 = (N−n1)!
n 2!×(N−n1−n2)! and so on.
Therefore the total number of ways in which ‘n1’ particles fall in state ‘1’ , ‘n2 ‘ particles in
state ‘ 2’... is
P = N !n 1!×(N−n1) !
× (N−n1)!n2 !×(N−n 1−n2) ! ....

n1!× n2 !× ….
This is known as thermodynamic probability.
Total probability ‘W’ of the distribution is the product of priori probability G and the
thermodynamic probability P

Expression for most probable distribution of particles among various energy levels:
Consider a system of ‘N’ similar but distinguishable molecules of a gas.
The number of ways of arranging the particles in ‘g1 ‘ state is given by
W = N! ∏1
k (gi)¿
¿! ------------------------1
Taking ‘ln’ on both sides
ln W = ln N! + ∑ ¿ lngi - ∑ lnni! [ when we take’ log’ ∏❑ becomes ∑❑ ]
By Striling,s formula ln x ! = x ln x –x
Applying this formula we get
ln W = N lnN – N + ∑ ¿ lngi -∑ (¿ ln ¿−¿)
= N lnN – N + ∑ ¿ lngi -∑ (¿ ln ¿) + ni
= N lnN – N+∑ ¿ lngi -∑ (¿ ln ¿) + ∑ ni
Differentiating with respect to ‘n1’,
d lnWdni = ∑ 0+0+¿ (0 )+¿¿ ln gi (1) – [ ni (
1ni
) + lnni (1) ] +1
= ∑ ln g i−1−ln ni+1
= ∑ ln g i−ln ni
d ln W = ∑ ln ( gi¿ ) dni
The condition for most probable distribution is d ln W = 0
Therefore the above equation becomes ∑ ln( gi¿ ) dni = 0 -------------------------2
If we confine our investigation to a closed system of particles the following conditions are
satisfied.
1.The total number of particles is constant i.e ∑ ni = constant
∴∑ d ni = 0 [differentiating] -----3
2. The total energy of the system is constant. i.e ∑∈i ni = constant
∴ ∑∈i d ni = 0 [differentiating] ------4
Multiply equation 3 by ∝ and equation 4 by β and add the result,
α∑ d ni +β∑ ∈i d ni} = 0 --------------------5
Page 4 of 54
2021 – PG- TRB - PHYSICS - UNIT – 4 – PART – 1
According to the method of Langrage’s undetermined multiplier, equations 2 and 5 are equal
∑ ln ( gi¿ )dni = α∑ d ni +β∑ ∈i d ni
Dividing by dni, we get ln ( gi¿ )= ∝ + β ∈ i
Taking exponential gi¿
= eα+β∈ i
gi
eα+β ∈ i = ni
Rearranging we get
nii = gi
eα+β ∈ i
This is the expression for most probable distribution.

2021 – PG- TRB - PHYSICS - UNIT – 4 – PART – 1
1. The fraction of molecules having velocity greater than zero increases with increase in
velocity, reaches a maximum and then falls off towards zero at higher velocities.
2. The fraction of molecules with too low or too high velocities is very small
3. There is certain velocity for which the fraction of molecules is maximum. This is called
most probable velocity.
4. Most probable velocity increases with rise in temperature.
5. exp ( −M c2
2 RT ) is called Boltzmann factor.
6. Boltzmann factor. Increases with increase in temperature.

NOT FOR EXAM:
This statistics deals with
1. Particles which are indistinguishable.
2. Any number of particles may occupy a given energy level.
3. particles having integral spin
This statistics is obeyed by particles having integral spin such as hydrogen ( H2), deuterium
(D2), nitrogen ( N2), helium-4 ( 4 He). Particles obeying BE statistics are called bosons.
Distribution function:
Consider a system of ‘N’ indistinguishable particles such that ni particles are in ‘gi’ states.
The number of ways in which one state is selected out of ‘gi’ state = (gi ) !.
The total number of permutations of ‘ni’ particles and ( gi – 1 ) partitions is = ( ni + gi – 1) !
The priori probability = gi ×( ni + gi – 1) !
Since the states are indistinguishable, interchanging of partitions does not alter an
arrangement . Hence the above expression must be divided by’ (gi ) !.
And particles are also indistinguishable and interchanging of particles also does not
alter an arrangement. Hence the above expression must also be divided by ‘ni !’
The total number of ways in which ‘n’ particles are to be distributed among g levels

Consider a system of ‘N’ similar but indistinguishable molecules of a gas. The number of
ways of arranging the particles in ‘gi’ state is given by
W = π [¿+gi−1]!

As ‘ni’ and ‘gi’ are large numbers ,we may neglect one in the above expression.
Therfore the above equation becomes
W = π [¿+gi ]!
(g i)!×∋! ------------1
Taking logarithm on both sides ln W = ∑ ln[ni+gi] ! - ∑ ln(gi ) !- ∑ lnni!
using Stirlings formula [ ln x ! = x ln x – x ]
ln W = ∑❑ { [ni+gi] ln [ni+gi] - [ni+gi} - {gi ln (gi ) - gi } – { ni ln ni - ni }
= ∑❑ { [ni+gi] ln [ni+gi] – ni- gi - gi ln (gi) + gi – ni ln ni + ni
= ∑❑ [ni+gi] ln [ni+gi] - gi ln (gi ) - ni ln ni
Differentiating with respect to ni,
d lnWd∋¿¿ = ∑❑ { ( ni +gi) (
1¿+gi ) + ln [ni+gi](1) } – {0} –{ ni ( 1
¿ ) + ln ni(1)}
= ∑❑ 1 + ln [ni+gi] – 1 - ln ni
= ∑ ln [¿+gi ]– ln∋¿¿
= ∑ ln ([¿+gi ]

The condition for most probable distribution is d ln W = 0
∴∑ ln([¿+gi ]

1.The total number of particles is constant ∑ ni = constant

2. The total energy of the system is constant. ∑∈i ni = constant

This equation is known as Planck’ energy distribution law in terms of λ,
DERIVATION:
An assembly of bosons ( indistinguishable particles with zero or integral spin ) is termed
as photon gas.
Consider an enclosure containing electromagnetic radiation. If the enclosure is
maintained at temperature T , it will emit and reabsorb photons. After certain time there will be
a thermodynamic equilibrium.. This electromagnetic radiation within the enclosure is called
black body radiation.
Energy of one photon = hγ
If there are ‘n’ photons , total energy = n hγ

Iv ‘V represents the volume of the container then Energy density = n h γV
Energy density in the given frequency interval between γ and γ + d γ , in volume V is given

According to Bose – Einstein distribution law,

where g is the number of degeneracies
Photons are indistinguishable from one another. Every process of such emission

18 BLACK BODY RADIATION
Any object, which absorbs the radiations of all wavelength , incident on it is called black body and when such a body is placed inside an isothermal enclosure at high temperature , it emits radiations of all wavelengths.
This heat radiation emitted by a black body is known as black body radiation.

Incident radiation
Black body radiations
Energy distribution:
1. The energy is not uniformly distributed
Page 25 of 54
2021 – PG- TRB - PHYSICS - UNIT – 4 – PART – 1
2. At a given temperature , the intensity of radiations increases with increase in wavelength to a maximum and then decreases.
3. With increase in temperature , the wavelength at which maximum emission of energy decreases..
Laws of black body radiation:
1. Planc’s quantum theory of black body radiation:
A black body can not absorb or emit energy in a continuous manner. It can absorb or
emit energy in the multiples of small units called quanta.
The energy density in the wavelength range λ and λ + dλ is given by
E= 8 πhc
λ5 (¿ ehϑKT −1 )¿
For short wavelengths:
λ is very low and ϑ = cλ is high e
hϑKT is also very high when compared to 1 . Therfore the
above equation becomes
E= 8πhc
λ5 ehϑKT
Which is Wein’s law
For longt wavelengths:
λ is veryhigh and ϑ = cλ is low e
hϑKT = 1+
hϑKT . Therefore the above equation becomes
E= 8 πhc
λ5(1+ hϑKT
−1) =
8 πhc
λ5( hϑKT )
= 8 πhcKT
λ5 hϑ
= 8 πcKT
λ5 ϑ
Page 26 of 54
2021 – PG- TRB - PHYSICS - UNIT – 4 – PART – 1
∴ E = 8πKT
λ4 [ϑ = cλ ]
Which is Rayleigh – Jeans law
Thus this law holds good both for long wavelengths and short wavelengths.
718 . FERMI-DIRAC STATISTICS
This statistics is obeyed by
1. Indistinguishable particles
2. Obey pauli’s exclusion principle.
3. This statistics is obeyed by particles having half integral spin such as electron, proton .
and the particles obeying FD statistics are called Fermions
4. The number of ways in which gi quantum states will each be occupied by one particle is
a. W = ∏1
g gi!( g i−ni ) !×n i!
5. Expression for most probable distribution of ‘ni’ particles in ‘gi’ energy levels is
ni = gi
eα+β ∈ i+1
Fermions
The atoms having odd number of particles are called fermions. They obey Fermi-
Dirac statistics Example: 1 H2( proton = 1,electron = 1 neutron =1 ) 2 He + ( 2+1+ 2)
NOT FOR EXAM:
Distribution function
Consider a system of ‘n’ indistinguishable particles. Let gi- denotes the degeneracy.
The possible number of distribution is given by ‘gi !’
Due to pauli’s principle, no cell can occupy more than one particle. Therefore among
‘gi’ cells only’ ni’ cells are occupied by one particle each and the remaining ‘( gi - ni )’ cells
are empty.
Page 27 of 54
2021 – PG- TRB - PHYSICS - UNIT – 4 – PART – 1
Since the partitions are indistinguishable, interchanging of partitions does not alter an
arrangement . Hence the above expression must be divided by (gi -ni) !.
Since particles are also indistinguishable and interchanging of particles also does not
alter an arrangement. Hence the above expression must also be divided by ‘ni !’
Therefore the number of ways in which ‘ gi ‘quantum states will each be occupied by one
particle is given by
W = ∏ gi!( gi−¿ )!×∋!
Expression for most probable distribution of particles among various energy levels:
Consider a system of ‘N’ similar but indistinguishable molecules of a gas. The number
of ways of arranging the particles in ‘gi’ state is given by
W = ∏ gi!( gi−¿ )!×∋!
Taking ‘ln ‘ on both sides
ln W = ∑ lngi ! - ∑ ln(gi-ni ) !- ∑ lnni!
using Stirlings formula [ ln x ! = x ln x – x ]
ln W = gi ln gi – gi - { gi-ni ) ln (gi-ni ) - (gi-ni ) } - {ni ln ni - ni }
= gi ln gi – gi - (gi-ni) ln (gi-ni) + gi - ni - ni ln ni + ni
= gi ln gi – gi - (gi-ni) ln (gi-ni) + gi - ni - ni ln ni + ni
= gi ln gi - (gi-ni ) ln gi-ni ) - ni ln ni
Differentiating with respect to’ ni’
d lnWd∋¿¿ = 0 – [ (gi – ni) (
1(gi−¿)) (-1) + ln [gi-ni]( 0 -1) ] – [ ni ( 1
¿) + ln ni(1)]
= +1 + ln [gi-ni] – 1 - ln ni
= ∑ ln([ gi−¿]
¿ )
d ln W =∑ ln([ gi−¿]
¿ )dn i
The condition for most probable distribution is d ln W = 0
Therefore we get ∑ ln ([ gi−¿]

If we confine our investigation to a closed system of particles the following conditions are
satisfied.

818APPLICATION OF FD STATISTICS TO ELECTRON GAS IN METALS
A metal is composed of system of fixed positive nuclei and a number of mobile
electrons. These mobile electrons are assumed to move freely in the metal like the particles of a
gas and constitute a perfect gas known as electron gas.
Since these electrons are assumed to obey pauli’s exclusion principle, they should obey FD
statistics. According to FD distribution law, the most probable distribution is given by,
ni = gi

from this we can derive the expression for Fermi energy which is

1018APPLICATION OF FD STATISTICS TO THERMIONIC EMISSION:
When metal is heated, there occurs an emission of electrons. This effect is known as
thermionic emission. The electrons thus emitted are called thermions.
According to Fermi- Dirac statistics, an electron at absolute zero possesses a maximum
energy equal to Fermi energy. EF Free electron theory assumes that potential within the metal
is constant (W). This is the minimum energy of the electron for its emission from the metallic
surface. Therefore the minimum energy to be supplied to the electron for its emission is W-EF
and is defined as the work function of the metal.
When the metal is heated, the free electrons gain the thermal energy , and when the
thermal energy is more than W-EF , the electrons are emitted from the metallic surface. The
thermal energy in excess of W-EF will be converted in to kinetic energy of the electrons. On
the other hand , on the classical picture, the amount of energy supplied to emit an electron from
the metal is W., a value much greater than indicated by experiments.
