This is a textbook which gradually introduces the student to the statistical mechanical study of the different phases of matter and to the phase transitions between them. Throughout, only simple models of both ordinary and soft matter are used but these are studied in full detail. The subject is developed in a pedagogical manner, starting from the basics, going from the simple ideal systems to the interacting systems, and ending with the more modern topics. The textbook provides the student with a complete overview, intentionally at an introductory level, of the theory of phase transitions. All equations and deductions are included.
Basics.- Mechanics.- Thermodynamics.- Statistical Physics.- Ideal Systems.- Microcanonical Ensemble.- Canonical Ensemble.- Grand Canonical Ensemble.- Non-ideal Systems.- Classical Systems with Interactions.- Phases of Matter.- Phase Transitions.- More Advanced Topics.- Critical Phenomena.- Interfaces.- Topological Defects.- Phase Transformation Kinetics.
From the reviews:
"This is an undergraduate textbook on equilibrium statistical mechanics, based on lectures given by the authors at Université Libre de Bruxelles and Universidad Complutense de Madrid. ... The book has four parts and a few appendices. ... This ... probably intended to provide students a reassuring perspective on the scope of statistical physics." (Nicolae Angelescu, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2009 k)
