In the replica symmetric approximation and static limit in Matsubara
"imaginary time", the
quantum XY spin glass model with planar Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in longitudinal field
is investigated. Several thermodynamic quantities are calculated
numerically as well as spin self-interaction and spin glass order parameter for spin S=1/2.
It is shown that the entropy is not
independent of the field. A crossover behavior of the specific heat depending on temperature is
found. There is a deviation from the parabolic approximation,
