Now that we have refined the Recursive Gravitation Equation:

we will extend this to statistical mechanics by linking it to the Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution.


1. Motivation: Why Does Gravitation Affect Maxwell-Boltzmann?

  1. Particle distributions in a gravitational system follow equilibrium thermodynamics.

    • The Boltzmann factor governs statistical systems:

    • “Temperature” is measurement of Radiation in the infrared subset of frequences.

    • The gravitational potential Φ(r) enters naturally as part of energy E.

  2. If F(r) recurses as r^{-(D-1)}, the energy distribution in phase space must adjust accordingly.

    • This modifies classical assumptions that only consider three-dimensional (D=3) space.

    • We will generalize the Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution to arbitrary fractal dimensions.


2. Generalizing Maxwell-Boltzmann Using DTD_TDT​ and DDD

The classical Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution is:

where:

Fractal-Scaled Generalization

We redefine this by introducing:

The generalized Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution is:

f(v;DT,D)=1Z(DT,D)(m2πkT)DT/2vDT−1e−mv22kT⋅η(D) f(v; D_T, D) = \frac{1}{Z(D_T, D)} \left( \frac{m}{2\pi k T} \right)^{D_T/2} v^{D_T -1} e^{-\frac{m v^2}{2 k T} \cdot \eta(D)} f(v;DT​,D)=Z(DT​,D)1​(2πkTm​)DT​/2vDT​−1e−2kTmv2​⋅η(D)

where:


3. Connecting Fractal Gravity and Thermal Distributions

The gravitational potential Φ(r)\Phi(r)Φ(r) determines the energy available for particles. Since we replaced the Newtonian 1/r1/r1/r dependence with a recursive integral:

the partition function of the system follows:

Thus, a system under fractally recursive gravity modifies the expected thermal equilibrium. The key effects:

  1. Higher D_T​ (Fractal Phase Space) ⟶ Broader velocity distribution

    • If D_T = 2.5, high-energy tails persist.

    • Explains why dwarf galaxies show unexpected velocity distributions.

  2. Higher D (Interaction Complexity) ⟶ "Hotter" Apparent Temperatures

    • If D=2π, effective kinetic energy increases, modifying thermodynamic assumptions, complex systems self-generate heat, catalysts.
