内容説明

Covering a range of topics in thermodynamics, statistical physics and statistical mechanics, this work sets out to provide an examination of statistical physics and its uses. The chapters start with relatively easy problems which lead progressively to more difficult ones.

目次

  • The laws of thermodynamics
  • statistical theory of information and of ensembles
  • statistical mechanics of ideal systems
  • ideal classical gases of polyatomic molecules
  • ideal relativistic classical and quantum gases
  • non-electrolyte liquids and solutions
  • phase stability, co-existence, and criticality
  • surfaces
  • the imperfect classical gas
  • the imperfect quantum gas
  • phase transitions
  • cooperative phenomena
  • green function methods
  • the plasma
  • negative temperatures and population inversion
  • recombination rate theory in semiconductors
  • transport in gases
  • transport in metals
  • transport in semiconductors
  • fluctuations of energy and number of particles
  • fluctuations of general classical mechanical variables
  • fluctuations of thermodynamics variables
  • time dependence of fluctuations - correlation functions, power spectra, Wiener-Khintchine relations
  • Nyquist's theorem and its generalizations
  • Onsager relations
  • stochastic methods - master equation and Fokker-Planck equation
  • ergodic theory, H-theorems, recurrence problems
  • variational principles and minimum entropy production.
