1301.3025 (Shyamal Biswas et al.)

A complete theory for the magnetism of an ideal gas of electrons    [PDF]

Shyamal Biswas, Swati Sen, Debnarayan Jana
We have explored Pauli paramagnetism, Landau diamagnetism and de Haas-van Alphen effect in a single framework, and unified these three effects for all temperatures as well as for all strengths of magnetic field. Our result goes beyond Pauli-Landau result on the magnetism of the 3-D ideal gas of electrons, and is able to describe crossover of the de Haas-van Alphen oscillation to the saturation of magnetization. We also have obtained a novel asymptotic series expansion for the low temperature properties of the system.
