Thermodynamic geometry of a system with unified quantum statistics

Abstract

We examine the thermodynamic characteristics of unified quantum statistics as a novel framework that undergoes a crossover between Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics by varying a generalization parameter $\delta$. We find an attractive intrinsic statistical interaction when $\delta\le0.5$ where the thermodynamic curvature remains positive throughout the entire physical range. For $0.5 < \delta < 1$ the system exhibits predominantly Fermi-like behavior at high temperatures, while at low temperatures, the thermodynamic curvature is positive and the system behaves like bosons. As the temperature decreases further, the system undergoes a transition into the condensate phase. We also report on a critical fugacity ($z = Z^*$) defined as the point at which the thermodynamic curvature changes sign, i.e. for $z< Z^*$ ($z > Z^*$), the statistical behavior resembles that of fermions (bosons). Also, we extract the variation of statistical behaviour of the system for different values of generalization parameter with respect to the temperature. We evaluate the critical fugacity and critical $\delta$ dependent condensation temperature of the system. Finally, we investigate the specific heat as a function of temperature and condensation phase transition temperature of the system for different values of generalization parameter in different dimensions.
