Abstract

We discuss quantum and classical statistical mechanics of springs at high energy densities using a complex temperature formalism. The high energy behavior of the microcanonical distribution is governed by the singularities of the canonical partition function in the complex β-plane. We identify the nature and locations of the singularities in addition to the Hagedorn singularity for strings in both compact and noncompact spaces and deduce thermodynamic properties from the resulting microcanonical distribution.
