Bose-Einstein statistics en · NOUN
Etymology
Named after physicists Albert Einstein and Satyendra Nath Bose, who developed the model and its underlying theory in 1924-25.
Meanings
-
(qualifier:quantum mechanics, uncountable) A particle statistics model that describes the behaviour of collections of particles (bosons) that do not obey the Pauli exclusion principle.
However, bosonic stimulation is as fundamental as Bose–Einstein statistics: one can derive the Bose–Einstein equilibrium distribution just by assuming detailed balance and bosonic stimulation (271).
