Abstract: | It is demonstrated that the method of Lin and Eyring for estimating the energy level density of a collection of harmonic oscillators can be used to calculate the vibrational energy level density of a Debye solid (a continuum of oscillators), and hence to obtain the Debye specific heat law. Haarhoff's formula is also considered. |
