Abstract
The equilibrium statistical mechanics relations are shown to be related to T-matrix, which describes the scattering processes taking place in the thermodynamic system consisting of free particles and independent correlated pairs, interacting via the separable non-local potential of rank two in the ℓth partial wave. Thermodynamic properties are related to the correlated states, when making a pole expansion of the analytically continued momentum matrix element of R ℓ (z), the difference between the resolvents of the interacting and free Hamiltonians. It is shown that local potentials equivalent to the nonlocal ones have an attractive part which is responsible for a bound state and negative values of some thermodynamic properties.
