Abstract
We construct the grand partition function of the system of chiral fermions in a uniform magnetic field from Landau levels, through which all thermodynamic quantities can be obtained. Taking use of Abel-Plana formula, these thermodynamic quantities can be expanded as series with respect to a dimensionless variable . We find that the series expansions of energy density, pressure, magnetization intensity and magnetic susceptibility contain a singular term with , while particle number density, entropy density and heat capacity are power series of . The asymptotic behaviors of these thermodynamic quantities in extreme conditions are also discussed.
