Which Statistics Will Apply to Deuterons?

F-D statistics will apply to deuterons and alpha particles.

Which statistics do photons obey?

It follows, from the above discussion, that photons obey a simplified form of Bose-Einstein statistics in which there is an unspecified total number of particles. This type of statistics is called photon statistics.

Which statistics do photons and electrons obey?

Particles that obey the B-E statistics, such as photons and phonons, are called bosons, while particles that obey the F-D statistics, such as electrons and holes in a degenerate semiconductor or electrons in a metal, are known as fermions.
