Primes

• Degrees of Freedom
  • The equipartition law breaks down at low temperature, where quantum mechanics "freezes out" high-frequency degrees of freedom; Einstein (1907) captured this freezing

    This sourceApplies Planck's quantum hypothesis to the Einstein-solid model; shows vibrational degrees of freedom "freeze out" at low temperature as the quantum energy gap exceeds k_B T, explaining departures from classical equipartition (Dulong–Petit) in specific heats.
