Statistical Physics II
Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics
Part of the Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences book series (SSSOL, volume 31)
About this book
Introduction
Statistical Physics II introduces nonequilibrium theories of statistical mechanics from the viewpoint of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Emphasis is placed on relaxation from nonequilibrium to equilibrium states, the response of a system to an external disturbance, and general problems involved in deriving a macroscopic physical process from more basic underlying processes. Fundamental concepts and methods are stressed, rather than the numerous individual applications.
