7 Preface Preface to the first edition Statistical physics is not a difficult subject, and I trust that this will not be found a difficult book. It contains much that a number of generations of Lancaster students have studied with me, as part of their physics honours degree work.the lecture course was of 20 hours duration, and I have added comparatively little to the lecture syllabus. A prerequisite is that the reader should have a working knowledge of basic thermal physics (i.e. the laws of thermodynamics and their application to simple substances). The book Thermal Physics by Colin Finn in this series forms an ideal introduction. Statistical physics has a thousand and one different ways of approaching the same basic results. I have chosen a rather down-to-earth and unsophisticated approach, without I hope totally obscuring the considerable interest of the fundamentals. This enables applications to be introduced at an early stage in the book. As a low-temperature physicist, I have always found a particular interest in statistical physics, and especially in how the absolute zero is approached. I should not, therefore, apologize for the low-temperature bias inthe topics which I have selected from the many possibilities. Without burdening them with any responsibility for my competence, I would like to acknowledge how much I have learned in very different ways from my first three bosses as a trainee physicist: Brian Pippard, Keith MacDonald and Sydney Dugdale. More recently my colleagues at Lancaster, George Pickett, David Meredith, Peter McClintock, Arthur Clegg and many others have done much to keep me on therails. Finally, but most of all,ithank my wife Joan for her encouragement. Preface to the second edition A.M. Guénault 1988 Some new material has been added to this second edition, whilst leaving the organization of the rest of the book (Chapters 1 12) unchanged. The new chapters aim to illustrate the basic ideas in three rather distinct and (almost) independent ways. Chapter 13 gives a discussion of chemical thermodynamics, including something about chemical equilibrium. Chapter 14 explores how some interacting systems can still be treated by a simple statistical approach, and Chapter 15 looks attwointeresting applications of statistical physics, namely superfluids and astrophysics. ix
8 x Preface The book will, I hope, be useful for university courses of various lengths and types. Several examples follow: 1. Basic general course for physics undergraduates (20 25 lectures): most of Chapters 1 12, omitting any of Chapters 7, 10, 11 and 12 if time is short; 2. Short introductory course on statistical ideas (about 10 lectures): Chapters 1, 2 and 3 possibly with material addedfrom Chapters 10 and 11; 3. Following (2), a further short course on statistics of gases (15 lectures): Chapters 4 6 and 8 9, with additional material available from Chapter 14 and 15.2; 4. For chemical physics (20 lectures): Chapters 1 7 and 10 13; 5. As an introduction to condensed matter physics (20 lectures): Chapters 1 6, 8 12, 14, In addition to those already acknowledged earlier, I would like to thank Keith Wigmore for his thorough reading of the first edition and Terry Sloan for his considerable input to my understanding of the material in section Preface to the revised and enlarged second edition A.M. Guénault 1994 This third edition of Statistical Physics follows the organization and purpose of the second edition, with comparativelyminor updating and changes to the text. I hope it continues to provide an accessible introduction to the subject, particularly suitable for physics undergraduates. Chapter summaries have been added to the first nine (basic) chapters, in order to encourage students to revise the important ideas of each chapter essential background for an informed understanding of later chapters.
