Equipartition of energy in gravitating systems

Abstract We explore on the one hand, whether the well-known theorem of equipartition of energy also applies to physical systems in which gravity plays a non-negligible role, as is the case of cosmological horizons and, on the other hand, if the holographic principle holds for these systems.

description Abstract We explore on the one hand, whether the well-known theorem of equipartition of energy also applies to physical systems in which gravity plays a non-negligible role, as is the case of cosmological horizons and, on the other hand, if the holographic principle holds for these systems. Furthermore, we find a direct connection between the partition function of the gravitating system and the metric of the gravitational field.
