Abstract
It is shown that a collection of photons with nearly the same frequency exhibits a “condensation” type of phenomenon corresponding to a peak intensity. The observed cosmic background radiation can be explained from this standpoint.We have obtained analogous results by extremization of the occupation number for photons with the use of the Lambert W function. Some of the interesting applications of this function are briefly discussed in the context of graphene which exhibits an interesting two dimensional structure with several characteristic properties and diverse practical applications.
