Product Details
- Statistical physics has its origins in attempts to describe the thermal properties of matter in terms of its constituent particles, and has played a fundamental role in the development of quantum mechanics. Based on lectures taught by Professor Kardar at MIT, this textbook introduces the central concepts and tools of statistical physics. It contains a chapter on probability and related issues such as the central limit theorem and information theory, and covers interacting particles, with an extensive description of the van der Waals equation and its derivation by mean field approximation. It also contains an integrated set of problems, with solutions to selected problems at the end of the book and a complete set of solutions is available to lecturers on a password protected website at www.cambridge.org/9780521873420. A companion volume, Statistical Physics of Fields, discusses non-mean field aspects of scaling and critical phenomena, through the perspective of renormalization group.

Mathematical Physics Editorial Review
**** "Statistical Physics of Particles" by Mehran Kardar has garnered significant praise from graduate-level physics students and educators alike. Many reviewers commend Kardar's concise and clear approach to the complex topics of statistical mechanics, drawing favorable comparisons to classic texts in the field, including those by Landau and Pathria. Readers appreciate how the textbook starts with fundamental principles, allowing for an understandable progression through various essential concepts like thermodynamics, probability, and both classical and quantum statistical mechanics. While some found the brevity of the text to be a strength, promoting a focus on the core ideas and derivations, others noted that this same conciseness could leave gaps for readers looking for more detailed explanations, particularly in areas like the derivation of the Boltzmann equation and diagrammatical techniques. Despite these minor critiques, the rigorous mathematical approach and the thought-provoking problem sets received Consistent recognition as valuable learning tools. Additionally, many students have benefitted from the author's proactive support and supplementary solutions for challenging problems. Overall, "Statistical Physics of Particles" is highly regarded as a modern and aesthetically pleasing textbook for those willing to engage with its demanding mathematical content, perfect for those seeking a solid grounding in statistical mechanics that is both insightful and succinct. **
