Second Virial Coefficient of Anyons without Hard Core

Do anyons, dynamically realized by the field theoretic Chern-Simons construction, obey fractional exclusion statistics? We find that they do if the statistical interaction between anyons and anti-anyons is taken into account. For this anyon model, we show perturbatively that the exchange statistical parameter of anyons is equal to the exclusion statistical parameter. We obtain the same result by applying the relation between the exclusion statistical parameter and the second ...

Starting from determinants at finite temperature obeying an intermediate boundary condition between the periodic (bosonic) and antiperiodic (fermionic) cases, we find results which can be mapped onto the ones obtained from anyons for the second virial coefficient. Using this approach, we calculate the corresponding higher virial coefficients and compare them with the results known in the literature.

The second virial coefficient for non-Abelian Chern-Simons particles is recalculated. It is shown that the result is periodic in the flux parameter just as in the Abelian theory.

An exact analytic form for the second virial coefficient, valid for the entire range of temperature, is presented for the Lennard-Jones fluid in this paper. It is derived by making variable transformation that gives rise to the Hamiltonian mimicking a harmonic oscillator-like dynamics for negative energy. It is given in terms of parabolic cylinder functions or confluent hypergeometric functions. Exact limiting laws for the second virial coefficient in the limits of low and hi...

In many fields of statistical physics, for instance in the study of the liquid-gas phase transition in finite nuclear matter, the Virial coefficients of the Fermi gas play a major role. In this note, we provide relations, sum rules, analytical formulas and numerical values for such coefficients.

The general structure of the partition function of an anyon gas is discussed, especially in relation to statements made in Phys. Rev. Lett. 68 (1992) 1621 and Phys. Rev. Lett. 69( 1992) 2877.

In a previous article \cite{kn:anirban1} a method has been introduced to derive the all order Bose-Einstein distribution of the non interacting Bosons as the solution of the Wigner equation. The process was a perturbative one where the Bose-Einstein distribution was taken as the unperturbed solution. In this article it is shown that the same formalism is also applicable in the case of interacting Bosons. The formalism has been applied to calculate the quantum second virial co...

We show that the assumption of quasiperiodic boundary conditions (those that interpolate continuously periodic and antiperiodic conditions) in order to compute partition functions of relativistic particles in 2+1 space-time can be related with anyonic physics. In particular, in the low temperature limit, our result leads to the well known second virial coefficient for anyons. Besides, we also obtain the high temperature limit as well as the full temperature dependence of this...

A result from Dodd and Gibbs[1] for the second virial coefficient of particles in 1 dimension, subject to delta-function interactions, has been obtained by direct integration of the wave functions. It is shown that this result can be obtained from a phase shift formalism, if one includes the contribution of oscillating terms. The result is important in work to follow, for the third virial coefficient, for which a similar formalism is being developed. We examine a number of fi...

We address the problem of multispecies anyons, i.e. particles of different species whose wave function is subject to anyonlike conditions. The cluster and virial coefficients are considered. Special attention is paid to the case of anyons in the lowest Landau level of a strong magnetic field, when it is possible (i) to prove microscopically the equation of state, in particular in terms of Aharonov-Bohm charge-flux composite systems, and (ii) to formulate the problem in term...
