For a one-component ideal Bose gas with masses (m,m,γm), insert the anisotropic ideal-gas density of states in the excited-state number integral at chemical potential zero. The substitution x=ε/(kB​T) gives n=γ​(mkB​T/(2πℏ2))3/2ζ(3/2), which yields the displayed transition temperature. Thus at fixed density and the two lighter masses, Tc​∝γ−1/3. This continuum ideal-gas result does not supply a finite-temperature transition for decoupled two-dimensional layers.
