We study the second virial coefficient, $B(T)$, for simple real gases at high temperature. Theoretical arguments imply that there exists a certain temperature, $T_i$, for each gas, for which this coefficient is a maximum. However, the…

We discuss the statistical mechanics of a two-dimensional gas of non-Abelian Chern-Simons particles which obey the non-Abelian braid statistics. The second virial coefficient is evaluated in the framework of the non-Abelian Chern-Simons…
In this work, we propose indirect evaluation methods to check the accuracy and the uncertainty of ab initio calculated virial coefficients. To this end, we have used single-pressure refractive-index gas thermometry (SPRIGT) to estimate the…

Based on the earlier papers in this series, we discuss here the errors in the prediction of the model, and compare with the error ranges in the spectra for individual elements. The predictions are spectra of $E^{-2.75 \pm 0.04}$ for…
