Abstract
Probabilistic physics is the name of a unified and vast science which deals with probabilistic treatment of physical systems. In other words, probabilistic physics is the science that emerges as a result of application of probabilistics to consideration of any kind of physical systems. Various separate disciplines such as, say, classical statistical physics, quantum physics, statistical hydrodynamics, kinetics of physical and chemical processes, etc., are thus particular domains of probabilistic physics.
