Photon-to-baryon ratio

ID: photon-to-baryon-ratio

The reciprocal of the baryon-to-photon ratio, not a synonym for it. In a thermal photon gas this number ratio is proportional to, but differs from, the thermodynamic entropy per baryon. The exact photon entropy per photon is , so the photon-sector entropy per baryon in units of is about . The entropy sector must be specified when other relativistic species contribute.
