Here is a textbook for the student who wishes to learn statistical and thermal physics step by step. The two volumes contain the standard materials for senior and/or first year graduate physics
majors. Emphasis is on the fundamentals, and chosen topics are discussed thoroughly and in depth. Many preparatory materials are included to facilitate basic understanding of the subject. More advanced and novel topics
include Kubo's correlation function formula for the electrical conductivity and its application to semi-conductors, and a model of correlated walks and its applications to the molecular diffusion in solids, the phase
transition, and the polymer conformation. |
