Abstract
The origin of the Boltzmann factor is revisited. An alternative derivation from the microcanonical picture is given. The Maxwellian distribution in a mono-dimensional ideal gas is obtained by following this insight. Other possible applications, as for instance the obtaining of the wealth distribution in the human society, are suggested in the remarks.
