Abstract

The effect of modulating potential at the surface of a nanotube in a longitudinal magnetic field on heat capacity of a degenerate and nondegenerate electron gas is considered. The heat capacity is represented by monotonic and oscillating terms. Heat capacity of a degenerate electron gas exhibits de Haas-van Alphen type oscillations, dependent on density of electrons, and Aharonov-Bohm type oscillation dependent on the intensity of the magnetic field going through the nanotube cross section.
