We consider a non-interacting Fermi gas in $d$ dimensions, both in the non-relativistic and relativistic case. The system of size $L^{d}$ is initially prepared into two halves $\mathcal{L}$ and $\mathcal{R}$, each of them thermalized at two…
While classical or quantum interacting liquids become turbulent under sufficiently strong driving, it is not obvious what flow pattern an ideal quantum gas develops under similar conditions. Unlike classical noninteracting particles which…
We consider the motion of tachyons (faster-than-light particles) in the framework of General Relativity. An important feature is the large contribution of low energy tachyons to the energy-momentum tensor. We also calculate the…
The equilibrium and fluctuations of an ideal gas in a rigid container are studied by every student of statistical mechanics. Here we study the less well-known case when the box is floating freely; in particular we determine the fluctuations…
We study the \textit{quantum} partition function of non-relativistic, ideal gas in a (non-cubical) box falling freely in arbitrary curved spacetime with centre 4-velocity u^a. When perturbed energy eigenvalues are properly taken into…
We apply a new approach based on three relativistic groups (bradyon, tachyon and instanton) forming the `Lorentz groupoid' which allows, in particular, to consider tachyons without introducing imaginary masses and negative energies…
The pressure of an ideal relativistic Fermi gas is computed as an infinite series for high temperatures at nonzero chemical potentials. The expansion of the particle number density, scalar density, and entropy density as first derivatives…
We consider translation invariant quantum systems in thermodynamic limit. We argue that their energy-momentum spectra should have shapes consistent with effective models involving quasiparticles. Our main example is second quantized…
Recently, a method to achieve a "natural hot-ion mode" was suggested, by utilizing ion viscous heating in a rotating plasma with a fixed boundary. We explore the steady-state solution to the Braginskii equations and find the parameter…
We investigate the electromagnetic response of a relativistic Fermi gas at finite temperatures. Our theoretical results are first-order in the fine-structure constant. The electromagnetic permittivity and permeability are introduced via…
Relative motion in space with multifractal time (fractional dimension of time close to integer $d_{t}=1+\epsilon (r,t), \epsilon \ll 1$) for "almost" inertial frames of reference (time is almost homogeneous and almost isotropic) is…
We study the early Universe trajectory around the QCD transition in lepton-flavor-asymmetric cases with small total lepton asymmetry ($|\ell|\lesssim 10^{-2}$), while allowing large individual lepton asymmetries. For each temperature, we…
In this paper, we establish a theory of Special Relativity valid for the entire speed range without the assumption of constant speed of light. Two particles species are defined, one species of particles have rest frames with rest mass, and…
Average energy per fermion in case of Fermi gas with any kinematic characteristic, trapped under most general power law potential in $d$ dimension has been calculated at zero temperature. In a previous paper (M. Acharyya, Eur. J Phys. 31…
We study how a system of one-dimensional spin-1/2 fermions at temperatures well below the Fermi energy approaches thermal equilibrium. The interactions between fermions are assumed to be weak and are accounted for within the perturbation…
We further analyze the recently proposed criterion, according to which a superfluid transition occurs whenever the r.m.s. displacement of a particle from its initial position in imaginary time reaches a certain fraction of the interparticle…
The sympathetic cooling of an initially degenerate Fermi gas by either an ideal Bose gas below $T_c$ or an ideal Boltzmann gas is investigated. It is shown that the efficiency of cooling by a Bose gas below $T_c$ is by no means reduced when…
From sand piles to electrons in metals, one of the greatest challenges in modern physics is to understand the behavior of an ensemble of strongly interacting particles. A class of quantum many-body systems such as neutron matter and cold…

The phrase "negative squared rest mass" can sometimes be found in papers on neutrinos and frequently occurs in the tachyonic literature. Consequently, some authors say that "the rest mass of tachyons is imaginary". Besides, the statement…
