For a dilute nonrelativistic gas with x=m/T≫1 and zero chemical potential, the Bose-Einstein distribution approaches the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. Expanding E=m+p2/(2m)+⋯ in the number density integral gives n∼g(mT/(2π))3/2e−x. Since ρ=mn+3nT/2+⋯ and P=nT, the entropy density at zero chemical potential gives s=n(x+5/2+⋯) and hence the displayed leading expression. This includes the internal multiplicity g; a single real scalar field has g=1.
