This book covers the
following topics: Statistical physics is an unfinished and highly active part of
physics.Principles of statistical mechanics, Thermodynamic quantities, The Gibbs
Distribution, Ideal gas, Statistical ensembles, Fluctuations, Stochastic
Processes, Non-Ideal Gases, Phase Equilibrium, Continuous Phase Transitions and
Transport phenomena.
The book contains
problems related to different topics in physics. The same page will contain
solutions of the problems. It is crucially important for students to solve problems
independently.
