Then a phase region of quantity in the vicinity of is inaccessible, similar to how a finite phase region of corresponding magnitude in the vicinity of is inaccessible in the Bohr atom. Starting with , then increases only very gradually to: , so that despite the enormous value of β (just as long as β does not exactly become order of magnitude N), the summed term under normal conditions may be regarded as a quasi-continuous function of index n and the sum may be approximated by an integral. I do this, but like Planck, Berl[iner] Ber[ichte] 1925, p. 52,[4] I attach to the in- tegral the first ( ) summed term that is multiplied by ϑ ( Then, for a suitable ϑ, all the subsequent formulas fit exactly, independent of the value of β. is introduced into the integral as a variable. This yields . This integral is easily evaluated however, it is more convenient to refrain from do- ing so. I now introduce and write as follows, where , for the sake of brevity: (X) . The curly bracket is the degeneracy factor. It stays very exactly = 1 with increasing β (decreasing temperature or volume) as long as β differs from l only by magni- tudes of the order of (i.e., until the difference has dropped to the order of magnitude ). I shall set . For , I set its value according to the formula indicated on the first page. = gas constant.
