13.10 Distribution Law According to the Three Statistics

We shall now work out the equilibrium conditions from the three statistics and deduce expression for distribution functions.

13.10.1 Maxwell–Boltzmann Distribution Law

Let us now calculate S from the relation S = k ln P using Stirling's theorem.
