Thermal de Broglie Wavelength for Massless Particles

The thermal de Broglie wavelength is roughly the average de Broglie wavelength of the gas particles in an ideal gas at the specified temperature.

The thermal de Broglie wavelength is proportional to the reciprocal of temperature.

Formula

QuantityVariable["Λ", "Wavelength"] == Quantity[1/(2*Pi^(1/3)), ("PlanckConstant"*"SpeedOfLight")/"BoltzmannConstant"]/QuantityVariable["T", "Temperature"]
