Photon gas in a finite box: thermodynamics and finite size effects
Abstract
Thermodynamic properties of a photon gas in a small box are explored taking into account finite size effects. General thermodynamic relations are derived for this finite system. Photon gas thermodynamic functions are calculated for the case of cuboid cavity on the basis of first principles. New finite size effects are discussed.
