For an imposed equilibrium cutoff mc2=PkB​Tf​ and density nf​=6[mc2kB​Tf​/(ℏc)2]3/2e−P, dilution by (T0​/Tf​)3 cancels the explicit mass in the final number density. The rest-energy density still scales with particle mass. This result assumes constant entropy degrees of freedom and no post-cutoff annihilation; entropy conservation adds a factor g∗s,0​/g∗s,f​ when these assumptions are relaxed.
