SWhat changed
An at-most-one occupation hypothesis is extended to ideal-gas state counting and thermodynamics, yielding a degeneracy distribution and low-temperature pressure/heat-capacity consequences.
Scientific scope
An at-most-one occupation hypothesis is extended to ideal-gas state counting and thermodynamics, yielding a degeneracy distribution and low-temperature pressure/heat-capacity consequences. The 1926 note states principles and results, reserving mathematical details for a later work. It assumes an ideal gas and the exclusion hypothesis; it is not an experimental validation or a model of every interacting gas. The inspected English translation dates from 1999.
