Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The nuclear contributions to E and S, by using equation 18.4, is to be evaluated. The justification for the corresponding answer is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Different linearly independent wavefunctions that have same energy are called degenerate. This is expressed in terms of degeneracy. If two functions are having same energy then they are called doubly degenerate and so on. The nuclear partition function is represented as,

qnuc=g1

Where,

g1 represents the degeneracy.
