Book Description
Tout physicien ou chimiste a un jour besoin de notions de physique statistique. En effet, la physique statistique (ou mécanique statistique) permet de faire le lien entre le monde microscopique et le monde macroscopique. La physique statistique est donc utile dès qu'il faut traiter de systèmes constitués d'un grand nombre de particules. Illustré par une centaine d'exercices corrigés, ce cours présente les postulats de base et le cadre mathématique de la physique statistique. Il passe ensuite à l'étude des systèmes hors équilibre et traite des transitions de phase et des phénomènes de transport. Cette nouvelle édition entièrement révisée est enrichie de nouveaux exercices corrigés.

Book Description
'The third edition of this book is designed to carefully and coherently introduce fractional calculus to physicists, by applying the ideas to two distinct applications: classical problems and multi-particle quantum problems. There remain many open questions and the field remains an active area of research. Dr Herrmann’s book is an excellent introduction to this field of study.'Contemporary PhysicsThe book presents a concise introduction to the basic methods and strategies in fractional calculus which enables the reader to catch up with the state-of-the-art in this field and to participate and contribute in the development of this exciting research area.This book is devoted to the application of fractional calculus on physical problems. The fractional concept is applied to subjects in classical mechanics, image processing, folded potentials in cluster physics, infrared spectroscopy, group theory, quantum mechanics, nuclear physics, hadron spectroscopy up to quantum field theory and will surprise the reader with new intriguing insights.This new, extended edition includes additional chapters about numerical solution of the fractional Schrödinger equation, self-similarity and the geometric interpretation of non-isotropic fractional differential operators. Motivated by the positive response, new exercises with elaborated solutions are added, which significantly support a deeper understanding of the general aspects of the theory.Besides students as well as researchers in this field, this book will also be useful as a supporting medium for teachers teaching courses devoted to this subject.

Book Description
"Statistics links microscopic and macroscopic phenomena, and requires for this reason a large number of microscopic elements like atoms. The results are values of maximum probability or of averaging. This introduction to statistical physics concentrates on the basic principles and attempts to explain these in simple terms, supplemented by numerous examples. These basic principles include the difference between classical and quantum statistics, a priori probabilities as related to degeneracies, the vital aspect of indistinguishability as compared with distinguishability in classical physics, the differences between conserved and non-conserved elements, the different ways of counting arrangements in the three statistics (Maxwell-Boltzmann, Fermi-Dirac, Bose-Einstein), the difference between maximization of the number of arrangements of elements, and averaging in the Darwin-Fowler method. Significant applications to solids, radiation and electrons in metals are treated in separate chapters, as well as Bose-Einstein condensation. In this latest edition, apart from a general revision, the topic of thermal radiation has been expanded with a new section on black bodies and an additional chapter on black holes. Other additions are more examples with applications of statistical mechanics in solid state physics and superconductivity. Throughout the presentation, the introduction carries almost all details for calculations"--

Book Description
La physique statistique permet de comprendre les propriétés macroscopiques des systèmes constitués d'un grand nombre de particules à partir de leurs éléments microscopiques. Elle établit un lien entre le monde microscopique, où chaque particule doit être prise en considération, et le monde macroscopique dans lequel un système est décrit avec un nombre restreint de paramètres accessibles à la mesure. L'ouvrage traite les systèmes à l'équilibre, les transitions de phase et certains aspects des phénomènes hors d'équilibre. Après avoir brièvement rappelé les bases de la thermodynamique, les auteurs introduisent les définitions fondamentales de la physique statistique et ses postulats. Ceci permet de comprendre les notions d'équilibre thermodynamique, de travail et de chaleur. La physique statistique est basée sur la notion d'ensembles qui sont des répliques à l'échelle macroscopique du système étudié. La nature des paramètres macroscopiques imposés conduit à définir plusieurs ensembles : microcanonique, canonique et grand canonique. Certaines applications de ces ensembles sont particulièrement développées : le gaz parfait classique et les gaz quantiques de Fermi et de Bose. Les transitions de phase qui sont d'importants phénomènes non linéaires sont aussi abordées. Enfin, quelques notions sur les phénomènes hors d'équilibre sont introduites : l'équation de Boltzmann et certaines approches des phénomènes de transport. Le cours est complété d'une centaine d'exercices corrigés. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux étudiants de physique ou de chimie de l'Université et aux élèves ingénieurs. Il intéressera également les chercheurs et les ingénieurs souhaitant disposer de quelques rappels de physique statistique.

Book Description
This third edition of one of the most important and best selling textbooks in statistical physics, is a graduate level text suitable for students in physics, chemistry, and materials science.The discussion of strongly interacting condensed matter systems has been expanded. A chapter on stochastic processes has also been added with emphasis on applications of the Fokker-Planck equation.The modern theory of phase transitions occupies a central place. The chapter devoted to the renormalization group approach is largely rewritten and includes a detailed discussion of the basic concepts and examples of both exact and approximate calculations. The development of the basic tools includes a chapter on computer simulations in which both Monte Carlo method and molecular dynamics are introduced, and a section on Brownian dynamics added.The theories are applied to a number of important systems such as liquids, liquid crystals, polymers, membranes, Bose condensation, superfluidity and superconductivity. There is also an extensive treatment of interacting Fermi and Bose systems, percolation theory and disordered systems in general.

Book Description
In this book some 50 papers published by K A Müller as author or co-author over several decades, amplified by more recent work mainly by T W Kool with collaborators, are reproduced. The main subject is Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) applied to the study of perovskites and other oxides with related subjects. This wealth of papers is organized into eleven chapters, each with an introductory text written in the light of current understanding. The contributions of the first editor on structural phase transitions have been immense, and because K A Müller and J C Fayet have published a review paper on the subject, the latter is reproduced in chapter VII. Not related to EPR is a part of chapter VIII on the dipolar and quantum paraelectric behavior with dielectric studies. In chapter X two papers proving the existence of Fermi glasses are reproduced.The year 1986 bears some significance: early in this year the paper by Bednorz and Müller on the possible observation of superconductivity was published. This resulted in a substantial shift in the paradigm of condensed matter physics, to which the present first editor has contributed scientifically with others and which will be reviewed in a second volume.

Book Description
“This collection of reprints allows the reader to chart the course of Müller's scientific development, from his early papers in the late 1950s all the way to high-temperature superconductivity in 1985 … A particular highlight is Müller's work on the Jahn-Teller effect … written in 1967 and appearing only as an article in a conference proceedings is a gem. Other treasures include the reviews on structural phase transitions (from 1981 and 1991, respectively) that are otherwise only obtainable in specialist books.”Contemporary PhysicsIn this book some 50 papers published by K A Müller as author or co-author over several decades, amplified by more recent work mainly by T W Kool with collaborators, are reproduced.
