Riseborough, Peter.
Statistical mechanics [electronic resource] / by Peter Riseborough. - Singapore : World Scientific, 2020. - 1 online resource (xvi, 676 p.)
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Thermodynamics -- Foundations of statistical mechanics -- The micro-canonical ensemble -- The canonical ensemble -- The grand-canonical ensemble -- Quantum statistical mechanics -- Fermi-dirac statistics -- Bose-einstein statistics -- Phase transitions -- The renormalization group -- Non-equilibrium phenomena.
"The book is aimed at undergraduate students in their senior year and first year graduate students. It elucidates the basis of thermodynamics and provides a basis for the understanding of, not only the thermodynamic properties of a microscopic system, but also their fluctuations, correlations and close-to-equilibrium properties"--Publisher's website.
