Statistical physics II: nonequilibrium statistical mechanics

By: Kubo, RyogoContributor(s): Toda, Morikazu | Hashitsume, NatsukiMaterial type: TextTextSeries: Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences ; (SSSOL, volume 31)Publication details: Heidelberg: Springer Berlin, c1991Edition: 2nd edDescription: 279 pISBN: 9783642582448; 97803540538332Online resources: Click here to access online Summary: Statistical Physics II introduces nonequilibrium theories of statistical mechanics from the viewpoint of the fluctuation-disipation theorem. Emphasis is placed on the 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.
