Landau's formalism of statistical mechanics [following L. D. Landau and E. M. Lifshitz, Statistical Physics (Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1980)] is applied to the quasi-particle model of quark–gluon plasma. Here, one starts from the expression for pressure and develop all thermodynamics. It is a general formalism and consistent with our earlier studies [V. M. Bannur, Phys. Lett. B647, 271 (2007)] based on Pathria's formalism [following R. K. Pathria, Statistical Mechanics (Butterworth-Heinemann, Oxford, 1977)]. In Pathria's formalism, one starts from the expression for energy density and develop thermodynamics. Both the formalisms are consistent with thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. Under certain conditions, which are wrongly called thermodynamic consistent relation, we recover other formalism of quasi-particle system, like in M. I. Gorenstein and S. N. Yang, Phys. Rev. D52, 5206 (1995), widely studied in quark–gluon plasma.

In this letter we propose a new method of calculating the equation of state (EOS) of quasi-particle model of quark–gluon plasma at finite chemical potential. In the quasi-particle model the quark propagator has the form of a free quark propagator with a temperature and density dependent effective mass. From this quark propagator the EOS at finite chemical potential is calculated using the model-independent formula proposed in Refs. 16 and 17. A comparison between our EOS and the cold, perturbative EOS of QCD proposed in Ref. 23 is made.
