Quantum and classical statistics
Physics Letters A, 1988Abstract It is argued that the difference between particles obeying quantum and classical statistics lies not in the particles but in the single-particle states: quantum states are discrete and classical states are dense. The classical limit is the limit of the density of states becoming infinite, making the underlying quantum symmetries invisible ...

Classical Statistical Inference
2014This chapter introduces the main concepts of statistical inference, or drawing conclusions from data. There are three main types of inference: point estimation, confidence estimation, and hypothesis testing. There are two major statistical paradigms which address the statistical inference questions: the classical, or frequentist paradigm, and the ...

Classical Statistical Mechanics
1993Matter on the macroscopic scale always consists of a very large number of particles (atoms or molecules). The number of particles in the macroscopic volume element of a cubic meter or a liter is of the order of magnitude of 1023. It is self-evident that it makes no sense to try to write out and solve the equations of motion for this number of particles.

Classical Statistical Mechanics
2021This 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 ...

In an area where there is so much acknowledged turmoil, such outspoken disagreement, and in which so many divergent points of view are so strongly represented as in statistics today, it is almost anomalous to refer to one particular theory as the ‘classical’ one. It is the stranger to use this term, in that the theory to which it is applied may be said

The Thermodynamics, discussed in Vol. 5 of this basic course in Theoretical Physics, is a phenomenological theory, which, being based on a few fundamental postulates (laws of thermodynamics), describes macroscopic systems in equilibrium with the help of a few variables as, for instance, pressure, volume, temperature, particle density, … .

Thermodynamics, Classical and Statistical
1959The most important conception in thermodynamics is temperature. The essential properties of temperature will be described below. Anticipating this we may define thermodynamics as that part of physics concerned with the dependence on temperature of any equilibrium property. This definition may be illustrated by a simple example.

Classical Statistical Inference
2017This chapter introduces the classical statistical approach for system identification in a general context. This is commonly referred as a ‘non-Bayesian’ approach and is currently the conventional perspective in operational modal analysis. Basic quantification of statistical estimators are presented and illustrated with examples.
