商品描述
An Introduction to Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics returns with a second edition which includes new chapters, further explorations, and updated information into the study of statistical mechanics and thermal dynamics.
The first part of the book derives the entropy of the classical ideal gas, using only classical statistical mechanics and an analysis of multiple systems first suggested by Boltzmann. The properties of the entropy are then expressed as "postulates" of thermodynamics in the second part of the book. From these postulates, the formal structure of thermodynamics is developed.
The third part of the book introduces the canonical and grand canonical ensembles, which are shown to facilitate calculations for many model systems. An explanation of irreversible phenomena that is consistent with time-reversal invariance in a closed system is presented.
The fourth part of the book is devoted to quantum statistical mechanics, including black-body radiation, the harmonic solid, Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics, and an introduction to band theory, including metals, insulators, and semiconductors. The final chapter gives a brief introduction to the theory of phase transitions.
Throughout the book, there is a strong emphasis on computational methods to make abstract concepts more concrete.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
《統計力學與熱力學導論》第二版回歸，新增了章節、進一步的探索以及更新的資訊，深入研究統計力學和熱力學。
本書的第一部分推導了經典理想氣體的熵，僅使用經典統計力學和由玻爾茲曼首次提出的多系統分析。熵的性質在本書的第二部分中被表達為熱力學的「公設」。從這些公設中，發展出熱力學的正式結構。
本書的第三部分介紹了正則系統和大正則系統，顯示這些系統有助於許多模型系統的計算。還介紹了一種與封閉系統中的時間反演不變性一致的不可逆現象的解釋。
本書的第四部分專注於量子統計力學，包括黑體輻射、諧波固體、玻色-愛因斯坦統計和費米-狄拉克統計，以及對能帶理論的介紹，包括金屬、絕緣體和半導體。最後一章簡要介紹了相變理論。
整本書強調計算方法，以使抽象概念更具體化。
