Phys. Rev. D 53, 879–881 (1996)Maximum temperature for an ideal gas of Û(1) Kac-Moody fermionsReceived 26 April 1995; published in the issue dated 15 January 1996 A Lagrangian for gauge fields coupled to fermions with the Kac-Moody group as its gauge group yields, for the pure fermions sector, an ideal gas of Kac-Moody fermions. The canonical partition function for the Û(1) case is shown to have a maximum temperature kTM=‖λ‖/π, where λ is the coupling of the supercharge operator G0 to the fermions. This result is similar to the case of strings but unlike strings the result is obtained from a well-defined Lagrangian. © 1996 The American Physical Society. © 1996 The American Physical Society URL:
