Doubly Special Relativity and Photons at the Planck Scale [CL]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1808.01243


In this paper, within the approach to doubly special relativity (DSR) suggested by Magueijo and Smolin, a new algebraically justified rule of so-called $\kappa$-addition for the energies of particles is proposed. This rule makes it possible to introduce the nonlinear $\kappa$-dependent Hamiltonian for one-mode multi-photon (sub)system. On its base, with different modes treated as independent, the thermodynamics of black-body radiation is explored within DSR, and main thermodynamic quantities are obtained. In their derivation, we use both the analytical tools within mean field approximation (MFA) and numerical evaluations based on exact formulas. The entropy of one-mode subsystem turns out to be finite (bounded). Another unusual result is the existence of threshold temperature above which radiation is present. Specific features of the obtained results are explained and illustrated with a number of plots. Comparison with some works of relevance is given.
