Abstract

Thermodynamics of ideal Fermi gas trapped in an external generic power law potential U=i=1dcixiainiU=\sum_{i=1} ^d c_i |\frac{x_i}{a_i}|^{n_i} are investigated systematically from the grand thermodynamic potential in dd dimensional space. These properties are explored deeply in the degenerate limit (μ>>KBT\mu>> K_BT), where the thermodynamic properties are greatly dominated by Pauli exclusion principle. Pressure and energy along with the isothermal compressibilty is non zero at T=0KT=0K, denoting trapped Fermi system is quite live even at absolute zero temperature. The nonzero value of compressibilty denotes zero point pressure is not just a constant but depends on volume.
