Specific heats of a monatomic gas-radiation mixture

ID: specific-heats-of-a-monatomic-gas-radiation-mixture

For fixed-composition monatomic ideal gas plus equilibrium blackbody radiation, let and . The mass-specific heats are and . The specific-heat ratio is , not generally any one of the stellar adiabatic exponents. Differentiate at constant total pressure rather than at constant .
