Abstract

Based on a covariant theory of equilibrium Thermodynamics, a Statistical Relativistic Mechanics is developed for the non-interacting case. Relativistic Thermodynamics and Jüttner Relativistic Distribution Function in a moving frame are obtained by using this covariant theory. A proposal for a Relativistic Statistical Mechanics is exposed for the interacting case.

Highlights

  • Some years after the Planck-Einstein [PE] [1,2] proposal about the relativistic transformations of equilibrium Thermodynamics, Jüttner [3] obtained his famous relativistic distribution function

  • Entropy 2011, 13 authors concluded that equilibrium statistical mechanics cannot provide an unambiguous answer to the relativistic transformation formulae of thermodynamical quantities and, all of the three kinds of transformations, the PE [1,2], the Ott [O] [5] and the Landsberg [L] [8,9,10] proposals, are acceptable

  • We have developed a Covariant Relativistic Statistical Mechanics which is compatible with the RRT for the non-interacting case

Summary

Introduction

Some years after the Planck-Einstein [PE] [1,2] proposal about the relativistic transformations of equilibrium Thermodynamics, Jüttner [3] obtained his famous relativistic distribution function. Starting by using the Redefined Relativistic Thermodynamics [RRT] an incipient non-covariant statistical theory has been developed by López-Carrera and Ares de Parga [13]. Parga and López-Carrera [18] have modified their theory, in a recent paper, in order to obtain a covariant theory for the relativistic transformation laws of Thermodynamics. Many authors by correcting their inconsistencies, the Ott-Möller proposal represents the best theory which describes the relativistic transformations of thermodynamical quantities, it has been showed by. By disregarding the non-interacting theorem [20], a Statistical Relativistic Mechanics could be developed based on the covariant validity of the RRT This represents the main purpose of the article.
