Fluctuations in the Canonical Ensemble
Abstract
The particle number and energy fluctuations in the system of charged particles are studied in the canonical ensemble for non-zero net values of the conserved charge. In the thermodynamic limit the fluctuations in the canonical ensemble are different from the fluctuations in the grand canonical one. The system with several species of particles is considered. We calculate the quantum statistics effects which can be taken into account for the canonical ensemble fluctuations in the infinite volume limit. The fluctuations of the particle numbers in the pion-nucleon gas are considered in the canonical ensemble as an example of the system with two conserved charges - baryonic number and electric charge.
