Statistical physics examines the collective properties of large
ensembles of particles, and is a powerful theoretical tool with
important applications across many different scientific
disciplines. This book provides a detailed introduction to
classical and quantum statistical physics, including links to
topics at the frontiers of current research. The first part of the
book introduces classical ensembles, provides an extensive review
of quantum mechanics, and explains how their combination leads
directly to the theory of Bose and Fermi gases. This allows a
detailed analysis of the quantum properties of matter, and
introduces the exotic features of vacuum fluctuations. The second
part discusses more advanced topics such as the two-dimensional
Ising model and quantum spin chains. This modern text is ideal for
advanced undergraduate and graduate students interested in the role
of statistical physics in current research. 140 homework problems
reinforce key concepts and further develop readers' understanding
of the subject.
