Looking for the heat capacity of ideal gas due to rotational degrees of freedom.
If the temperature of the gas is much higher than the temperature corresponding to the energy differential between states,the partition function can be written as the integral over the density of states.
If the temperature is much smaller,then the higher terms of the partition function can be ignored.
Is there a usual method for when the two temperatures are close to each other?
