Multiple photon detection and the localization of light energy

Abstract

It is shown that probabilities of photon detection can be found on the basis of consideration of the phase space sells filling for an ideal photon gas, which led Bose to the derivation of the Planks law. These probabilities are directly connected to photon localization properties consistent with the entropy of a dilute photon gas found by Einstein.
