Noteworthy For The Philosophical Subtlety Of Its Foundations And The Elegance Of Its Problemsolving Methods, Statistical Mechanics Can Be Employed In A Broad Range Of Applications Among Them, Astrophysics, Biology, Chemistry, Nuclear And Solid State Physics, Communications Engineering, Metallurgy, And Mathematics. Geared Toward Graduate Students In Physics, This Text Covers Such Important Topics As Stochastic Processes And Transport Theory In Order To Provide Students With A Working Knowledge Of Statistical Mechanics.To Explain The Fundamentals Of His Subject, The Author Uses The Method Of Ensembles Developed By J. Willard Gibbs. Topics Include The Properties Of The Fermidirac And Boseeinstein Distributions; The Interrelated Subjects Of Fluctuations, Thermal Noise, And Brownian Movement; And The Thermodynamics Of Irreversible Processes.Negative Temperature, Magnetic Energy, Density Matrix Methods, And The Kramerskronig Causality Relations Are Treated Briefly. Most Sections Include Illustrative Problems. Appendix. 28 Figures. 1 Table.
