| Jul 4, 2016 at 7:20 | comment | added | New Developer | @CuriousOne No. It is the frequency related to the average number of particles found in a given single-particle microstate. | |
| Jul 4, 2016 at 7:11 | comment | added | CuriousOne | Do you by any chance mean the frequency at which particles hit an area element? | |
| Jul 4, 2016 at 6:42 | comment | added | New Developer | Yes. It is the frequency of energy eigenstates. We have speed distribution (see equation 6 link) or energy distribution (see equation 9 link). But I need the frequency distribution. | |
| Jul 4, 2016 at 6:34 | comment | added | Selene Routley | the Boltzmann distribution is certainly valid here. However, I find "frequency" confusing - the only thing I can think of is frequency of energy eigenstates. Or am I wrong? What other frequencies are there? | |
| Jul 4, 2016 at 6:10 | comment | added | New Developer | @WetSavannaAnimalakaRodVance aka Rod Vance I want to obtain the frequency distribution of a bath of gaseous particles. Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution is a classical distribution. Is it right to replace energy with hw? | |
| Jul 4, 2016 at 6:00 | comment | added | Selene Routley | What kind of system and frequencies are you talking about? Are you talking about frequencies of energy eigenstates, in which case the distribution would simply be $Z^{-1}\,g_i\,\exp(-\hbar\,\omega_i/(k\,T)$ where $g_i$ is the number of degenerate states of energy $E_i=\hbar\,\omega_i$ and $Z$ the normalizing partition function. | |
