Keywords : photon mean number, mean free path, relationship between mean number of photons and mean free path, possibility of measuring experimentally the, mean occupation number of photons, photon mean number as a function of mean free path, steady-state Boltzmann equation to describe the photon mean number, integrodifferential equation and photon mean number, Fourier transforms and the mean occupation number of photons, radiation field occupation mean number, a mode occupation mean number    
Abstract:
In this work a relationship is found between the mean occupation number of photons and the mean free path. This relation guarantees the possibility of experimentally measuring the mean occupation number of photons occupying a mode of the radiation field by measuring the mean free path.
