Equilibrium intensive thermodynamic properties of p‐particles (p‐ons), i.e., composed particles formed by few particles of the same nature such as fermion or boson pairs ( p =2), trios ( p =3), etc., are investigated. The relation of the p‐particle correlation functions to its p‐hole counterparts and an existing covariant structure in the hierarchy of the p‐particle correlation functions allow these generalized intensive properties to be properly defined and characterized. The connection between these generalized properties of the composed objects and those of the components is also derived. An explicit derivation of the chemical potential for pairs and its generalization to p‐particles is performed. Such results are further extended to any intensive property. Finally, the present development allows some previous results to be clearly interpreted thus yielding an important support for our theory. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2001
