(a) State the basic differences in the fundamental assumption underlying Maxwell - Boltzmann (MB) and Fermi - Dirac (FD) statistic. (b) Make a rough plot of the energy distribution function at two different temperatures for the system of free particles governed by MB statistics and one governed by FD statistic. Indicate which curve corresponds to the high and lower temperature.
