Classical Statistical Mechanics

Statistical Thermodynamics for Pure and Applied Sciences, 2021
This chapter focusses mainly upon the classical mechanical evaluation of the partition function for a gas of structureless atoms, and begins with a discussion of energy equipartition. The role of interatomic interactions is examined using the grand partition function, as it enables a more convenient separation of the roles played by kinetic and ...

States of Classical Statistical Mechanics

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 1967
A state of an infinite system in classical statistical mechanics is usually described by its correlation functions. We discuss here other descriptions in particular: as (1) a state on a B* algebra; (2) a collection of density distributions; (3) a field theory; (4) a measure on a ``space of configurations of infinitely many particles.'' We consider the ...

Analysis of Classical Statistical Mechanics by Means of Collective Coordinates

, 1958
The three-dimensional classical many-body system is approximated by the use of collective coordinates, through the assumed knowledge of two-body correlation functions. The resulting approximate statistical state is used to obtain the two-body correlation

Exploiting the isomorphism between quantum theory and classical statistical mechanics of polyatomic fluids

, 1981
From a discretization of the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, it is possible to relate equilibrium quantum many body theory to classical statistical mechanics.
