On Boundedness of Entropy of Photon Gas in Noncommutative Spacetime

Abstract EN

Entropy bound for the photon gas in a noncommutative (NC) spacetime where phase space is with compact spatial momentum space, previously studied by Nozari et al., has been reexamined with the correct distribution function.

While Nozari et al.

have employed Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution function to investigate thermodynamic properties of photon gas, we have employed the correct distribution function, that is, Bose-Einstein distribution function.

No such entropy bound is observed if Bose-Einstein distribution is employed to solve the partition function.

As a result, the reported analogy between thermodynamics of photon gas in such NC spacetime and Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of black holes should be disregarded.
