aims
The students can systematize the principles and the theoretical description of statistical physics and are able to apply them to solve relevant problems.
requirements
Knowledge of thermodynamics, mechanics, and quantum mechanics
structure / topics / contents
0. Introduction
1. Principles of thermodynamics and quantum mechanics
2. Basic notions of statistical physics (pure and mixed states; entropy and probability theory; ensembles; connection to thermodynamics)
3. Ideal systems (spin systems; Boltzmann, Bose and Fermi gases; Exampls)
4. Principles of statistical physics (Density matrix; thermodynamic equilibrium; perturbation theory; variational techniques; quantum corrections to classical statistical physics)
5. Real systems in thermodynamic equilibrium and phase transitions (spin models with interactions; order parameter; Mean field theory; Ginzburg-Landau theory)
6. Thermodynamic systems in non-equilibrium (Linear response theory; Causality and structure of response functions; FLuctuation-dissipation theorem)
