KW - Research KW - Kinetic theory of gases KW - Statistical thermodynamics N1 - Includes bibliographical references and index N2 - "Statistical physics is a branch of physics that uses methods of probability theory and statistics, and particularly the mathematical tools for dealing with large populations and approximations, in solving physical problems. It can describe a wide variety of fields with an inherently stochastic nature. This book gives introduction to topics such as kinetic theory, equilibrium statistical mechanics and the theory of fluctuations from a modern perspective. The book provides a comprehensive approach of all the fundamental concepts of kinetic theory, thermodynamics and statistical physics." ER -
