Abstract

Since the grand partition function ZqZ_q for the so-called qq-particles (i.e.,\ quons), q(1,1)q\in(-1,1), cannot be computed by using the standard 2nd quantisation technique involving the full Fock space construction for q=0q=0, and its qq-deformations for the remaining cases, we determine such grand partition functions in order to obtain the natural generalisation of the Plank distribution to q[1,1]q\in [-1,1]. We also note the (non) surprising fact that the right grand partition function concerning the Boltzmann case (i.e.,\ q=0q=0) can be easily obtained by using the full Fock space 2nd quantisation, by considering the appropriate correction by the Gibbs factor 1/n!1/n! in the nn term of the power series expansion with respect to the fugacity zz. As an application, we briefly discuss the equations of the state for a gas of free quons or the condensation phenomenon into the ground state, also occurring for the Bose-like quons q(0,1)q\in(0,1).
