1. Statistical mechanics: Statistical mechanics is the use of statistics and probability theory to analyze the behavior of a vast number of interacting particles. It provides a microscopic level interpretation of macroscopic thermodynamics quantities like work, heat and entropy. [100%] 2023-03-03 [Physics]
2. Statistical mechanics: In physics, statistical mechanics is a mathematical framework that applies statistical methods and probability theory to large assemblies of microscopic entities. It does not assume or postulate any natural laws, but explains the macroscopic behavior of nature from the behavior ... (Physics) [100%] 2023-11-27 [Statistical mechanics] [Thermodynamics]...
3. Statistical mechanics and thermodynamics: (The original course was based on a course summarized by Lior Yosub and Liana Diesendruck.

5. Microstate (statistical mechanics): In statistical mechanics, a microstate is a specific microscopic configuration of a thermodynamic system that the system may occupy with a certain probability in the course of its thermal fluctuations. In contrast, the macrostate of a system refers to its ... (Physics) [81%] 2023-12-26 [Statistical mechanics]
6. Quantum statistical mechanics: Quantum statistical mechanics is statistical mechanics applied to quantum mechanical systems. In quantum mechanics a statistical ensemble (probability distribution over possible quantum states) is described by a density operator S, which is a non-negative, self-adjoint, trace-class operator ...

7. Multiplicity (statistical mechanics): In statistical mechanics, multiplicity (also called statistical weight) refers to the number of microstates corresponding to a particular macrostate of a thermodynamic system. Commonly denoted \displaystyle{ \Omega }[/math], it is related to the configuration entropy of an isolated system via ... (Physics) [81%] 2023-09-09 [Statistical mechanics]

9. Philosophy of Statistical Mechanics: Statistical mechanics was the first foundational physical theory in which probabilistic concepts and probabilistic explanation played a fundamental role. For the philosopher it provides a crucial test case in which to compare the philosophers' ideas about the meaning of probabilistic ... (Philosophy) [70%] 2022-02-18
10. Ensemble average (statistical mechanics): In statistical mechanics, the ensemble average is defined as the mean of a quantity that is a function of the microstate of a system, according to the distribution of the system on its micro-states in this ensemble. Since the ... (Physics) [70%] 2023-10-18 [Statistical mechanics]
11. Correlation function (statistical mechanics): In statistical mechanics, the correlation function is a measure of the order in a system, as characterized by a mathematical correlation function. Correlation functions describe how microscopic variables, such as spin and density, at different positions are related.
