Moddelling electrons
« on: November 22, 2017, 05:51:35 PM »
Im a high school student looking into researching this question: to what extent can electrons be modelled as gas particles? I have already looked at the theory behind all of this but cannot think of an experiment which could help me investigate this. I am grateful for any suggestions.

Please elaborate on what kind of model do you think, "modelling electrons as gas particles" leaves plenty to guess.

Is it in a metal perhaps? There, electrons are often thought as a gas or a sea, but such models have limits.
