Aimed at graduate students, this book explores some of the core
phenomena in non-equilibrium statistical physics. It focuses on the
development and application of theoretical methods to help students
develop their problem-solving skills. The book begins with
microscopic transport processes: diffusion, collision-driven
phenomena, and exclusion. It then presents the kinetics of
aggregation, fragmentation and adsorption, where the basic
phenomenology and solution techniques are emphasized. The following
chapters cover kinetic spin systems, both from a discrete and a
continuum perspective, the role of disorder in non-equilibrium
processes, hysteresis from the non-equilibrium perspective, the
kinetics of chemical reactions, and the properties of complex
networks. The book contains 200 exercises to test students'
understanding of the subject. A link to a website hosted by the
authors, containing supplementary material including solutions to
some of the exercises, can be found at
www.cambridge.org/9780521851039.
