Homework Statement
The system is composed of a set of N non-interacting harmonic oscillators which can be described as a two-dimensional Einstein solid model in the x, y plane. Suppose that each oscillator has mass m and charge q and that there is a magnetic field HH directed along the z direction.
Relevant Equations
Compute (when the system at thermal equilibrium at temperature T):
Internal Energy
Magnetization
Specific heat capacity\bigm

I tried to solve it considering the canonical ensemble (since the system is at the equilibrium with temperature T) and started finding the partition function:

The problem is I am not sure if I have done it correctly and need help because I don't really know where to check.

Why are you adding the two terms in your expression for the partition sum? You just have to use the expression and do the two sums over ##n_r## and ##n_l##. Obviously these two sums factorize!
