Abstract
We study the finite-temperature Schwinger model by explicitly calculating the exact fermion two-point function at finite temperature in the Coulomb gauge and thus obtain the canonical ensemble average of the Hamiltonian. The theory is found to be equivalent to an ensemble of noninteracting, neutral, massive, Bose particles. Thus the particle content is identical to that obtained at zero temperature.
