Abstract
The thermodynamical properties are calculated for a three-dimensional model of N harmonically interacting spin-polarized fermions in a parab olic potential well. The obtained dependences of the chemical potentia l and of the internal energy on the complete range of the temperature and of the number of particles turn out to obey a scaling law, similar to the scaling from the continuum approximation for the density of st ates. The calculational technique is based on our path-integral approa ch of symmetrized density matrices for identical particles in a parabo lic confining well.
