 Quadratic-boson heat-capacity coefficient

One isotropic three-dimensional bosonic branch with dispersion $ϵ=\alpha p^2$ and zero chemical potential has density of states per volume $\sqrt{ϵ}/(4{\pi }^2{\hslash }^3{\alpha }^{3/2})$. Integrating its Bose-Einstein energy and differentiating temperature gives the title coefficient. Identical independent branches multiply it by their number. Thus a measured $T^{3/2}$ coefficient fixes branch multiplicity divided by ${\alpha }^{3/2}$, not a dispersion coefficient independent of that counting convention. A gap or low-dimensional spectrum changes the asymptotic law.
