Wolfgang Cassing: Theoretical Physics Compact IV, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This book, together with the three other volumes, offers a clear and comprehensive approach to theoretical physics for the entire Bachelor's program.

Highlights:

Theoretical derivations are linked with characteristic examples, their solutions, typical applications, and are clearly illustrated in figures. The required mathematics is derived within a physical context and transparently explained.

Contents:

Statistical Ensembles -- Identical Particles -- Concept of the Statistical Ensemble -- Statistical Definition of Entropy -- Statistical Ensembles in Equilibrium -- Independent Identical Particles -- Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics -- Small Deviations from Equilibrium -- The Ideal Fermi Gas -- The Ideal Bose Gas -- Real Gases -- Magnetic and Electric Properties of Matter -- Kinetic Theories

Target Audience:

This book is particularly suitable for Bachelor's students in their final year.

Prerequisites:

Mathematical prerequisites include knowledge in calculus, linear algebra, and complex analysis.

The Author:

Wolfgang Cassing is a retired Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Justus-Liebig-University Gießen. His expertise lies in the phase-space dynamics of classical and quantum many-body systems, which he incorporated into his textbook "Transport Theories for Strongly-Interacting Systems". His current textbook series Theoretical Physics Compact also includes Classical Mechanics, Electrodynamics, and Quantum Mechanics.
