A new measure of thermal micro-behavior for the AdS black hole

Abstract

Inspired by the hypothesis of the black hole molecule, with the help of the Hawking temperature, entropy and the thermodynamics curvature of the black hole, we propose a new measure of the relation between the interaction and the thermal motion of molecules of the AdS black hole as a preliminary and coarse-grained description. The measure enables us to introduce a dimensionless ratio to characterize this relation and show that there is indeed competition between the interaction among black hole molecules and their thermal motion. For the charged AdS black hole, below the critical dimensionless pressure, there are three transitions between the interaction state and the thermal motion state. While above the critical dimensionless pressure, there is only one transition. For the Schwarzschild-AdS black hole and five-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet AdS black hole, there is always a transition between the interaction state and the thermal motion state.
