The attraction term in an equation of state for gases, $-a c^2$, proposed by Rankine in 1854, is generally related to the London dispersion force via the equation for the second virial coefficient, $B_2$, given by $B_2 = 2\pi N_0…

At finite temperature, a Fermi gas can have sates that hold simultaneously a particle and a hole with a finite probability. This gives rise to a new set of diagrams that are absent at zero temperature. The so called "anomalous" diagram is…
