An analytic expression approximating the Debye heat capacity function

It is useful to have analytic expressions for important functions in the equations of state of materials. The Debye model has been quite successful in approximating the thermal energy properties of a variety of solids, but is nonanalytic. Existing approximations suffer from various shortcomings, the...
