Abstract

The suppression of degeneracy of ultrarelativistic electron and nonrelativistic proton gases is considered as a function of temperature and magnetic field strength. It is shown that at absolute zero the degeneracy of nonrelativistic proton and relativistic electron gases of equal concentrations is suppressed at the same values of magnetic field strength exceeding considerably the values at which these particles fill the lower Landau level completely.
