Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics

... In a nutshell, thermodynamics is the study of the internal motions of many-body systems. Virtually all physical entities that we encounter in everyday life are many-body systems of some type or other (e.g., solids, liquids, gases, and even electromagnetic radiation). Not surprisingly, therefore, the ...

If one retains the electric field, there is now a restoring force and wave modes; however the same phenomenon occurs:there are a continuum of wave modes in phase space, while velocity averages decrease, now only exponentially (in a stable plasma), due to a subtler phase mixing (Landau damping).

There are five unknowns occurring in (2.1.25): q1 ; q2 ; Lx ; Ly ; Lz : To solve this problem, one decomposes L into two components, Lt and Ln, the first being tangent to the surface and showing the direction of motion, and the second along the normal to the surface. If Lt = 0, then L = Ln. To expre ...

Grand canonical ensemble

In statistical mechanics, a grand canonical ensemble is the statistical ensemble that is used to represent the possible states of a mechanical system of particles that is being maintained in thermodynamic equilibrium (thermal and chemical) with a reservoir. The system is said to be open in the sense that the system can exchange energy and particles with a reservoir, so that various possible states of the system can differ in both their total energy and total number of particles. The system's volume, shape, and other external coordinates are kept the same in all possible states of the system.The thermodynamic variables of the grand canonical ensemble are chemical potential (symbol: µ) and absolute temperature (symbol: T). The ensemble is also dependent on mechanical variables such as volume (symbol: V) which influence the nature of the system's internal states. This ensemble is therefore sometimes called the µVT ensemble, as each of these three quantities are constants of the ensemble.
