The statistical mechanical theory of liquids and solutions is a
fundamental area of physical sciences with important implications
in other fields of science and for many industrial applications.
This book introduces equilibrium statistical mechanics in general,
and statistical mechanics of liquids and solutions in particular. A
major theme is the intimate relationship between forces in a fluid
and the fluid structure - a relationship that is paramount for the
understanding of the subject of interactions in dense fluids. Using
this microscopic, molecular approach, the text emphasizes clarity
of physical explanations for phenomena and mechanisms relevant to
fluids, addressing the structure and behavior of liquids and
solutions under various conditions. A notable feature is the
author's treatment of forces between particles that include
nanoparticles, macroparticles, and surfaces. The book provides an
expanded, in-depth treatment of simple liquids and electrolytes in
the bulk and in confinement. Provides an introduction to
statistical mechanics of liquids and solutions with special
attention to structure and interactions. Offers an extensive
presentation starting with the basics of statistical mechanics to
modern aspects of the theory of liquids and solutions, including
intermolecular interactions in fluids. Treats both homogeneous bulk
fluids and inhomogeneous fluids near surfaces and in confinement.
Takes a microscopic, molecular approach that combines physical
transparency, theoretical sharpness and a pedagogical and
accessible style. Gives explicit and clear textual explanations and
physical interpretations for any mathematical relationships and
derivations. Goes deeper than the available texts on interactions
in fluids, by taking the discussion beyond simple approximations
and mean field approaches. The book will be an invaluable resource
for advanced undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate students in
physics, chemistry, soft matter science, surface and colloid
science and related fields, as well as professionals and
instructors in those areas of science.
