Abstract

The invariance of the Maxwell-Boltzmann statistical distribution function has been established using Hsu’s space-light transformations. The transformations of temperature and heat turn out to be the same as given by Ott, contradicting Planck-Einstein’s views regarding their transformation. Incidently the invariance of entropy is obtained.
