Statistical Mechanics Made Simple: A Guide for Students and Researchers
By Daniel C. Mattis.
Description
This text is an elaboration of the author's lecture notes on a graduate course in thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. The original notes supplemented topics lacking in traditional texts. In its present augmented version the text may be used as the sole or primary text in a one-semester course in thermodynamics/statistical mechanics or as an adjunct text in a two-semester course. Statistical mechanics is the application of physics or chemistry at finite temperature T and can encompass as many topics involving these disciplines as one wishes. This work is intended to respond to the...
