Description
Summary:The conformal properties of the effective action are used to calculate the grand thermodynamic potential of charged, non-conformally invariant spin-0 and spin-1/2 gases in a static spacetime. Explicit high temperature series are found in terms of the Minakshisundaram coefficients. The flat space limits, in four dimensional spacetime, agree with known expressions.
