Statistical mechanics of ideal gas in the presence of minimal length and maximal momentum

Original · EN

Various approaches to quantum gravity suggest that the fundamental volume of the phase space of the given space for representative points, means!0, should be modified. In this paper, we study the effects of this modification on the thermodynamics of an ideal gas within the micro canonical ensemble. For this end, we use a Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) that admits both a minimal measurable length and a maximal momentum. Using this GUP causes decreasing the total number of the microstates of the system. In the first step, we calculate these reductions for classical ideal gas, and in the second step, we calculate these effects for ultra relativistic gas.
