Lecture 14 Thermodynamic Properties
... We account for indistinguishability by dividing by N !. Why? There are N ! ways of arranging N atoms at N sites. If we count each one of those configurations as distinct then we would over-count the partition function by a factor of N !. The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that ...

Quantum theory of many − particle systems
... This is the Lagrange equation for a particle in one dimension. We have derived it for a very simple mechanical problem, but the result can be generalized to any number of particles and any number of dimensions. If we consider a system of N particles in three dimensions, we need 3N coordinates to spe ...

Even if we don’t actually see them, ie, they are not actually being observed, nevertheless they are observable in the sense that it is possible to see them. Some ph ...
