On the radiative and thermodynamic properties of the cosmic radiations using Cobe Firas instrumental data: Sunyaev-Zeldovich distortion effect
read the original abstract
The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect is a small spectral distortion of the spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. This slight distortion is described by the Bose-Einstein (mu-type) distribution with non-zero chemical potential. It is now interesting to investigate the effect of this distortion on the integral characteristics of the Bose-Einstein spectrum. The thermal radiative and thermodynamic functions of the Bose-Einstein distribution are such integral characteristics. These functions are as follows: a) the total radiation power per unit area; b) total energy density; c) number density of photons; d) grand potential density; e) Helmholtz free energy density; f) entropy density; g) heat capacity at constant volume; h) enthalpy density; and i) pressure. The exact analytical expressions are obtained for the temperature dependences of these functions. Using experimental data measured by the COBE FIRAS instrument, the thermal radiative and thermodynamic functions are calculated at the monopole temperature T = 2.72548 K and at z = 0. A comparative analysis of the results obtained with the results for the same functions of the CMB spectrum is carried out. The thermal radiative and thermodynamic functions of the Bose-Einstein distribution are calculated in the redshift range from 10(5) to 3x10(6). The expressions are obtained for new astrophysical parameters, such as the entropy density/Boltzmann constant and number density, created by the mu- distortion of the CMB spectrum.
