The evolution of radiation towards thermal equilibrium: A soluble model which illustrates the foundations of Statistical Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In 1916 Einstein introduced the first rules for a quantum theory of electromagnetic radiation, and he applied them to a model of matter in thermal equilibrium with radiation to derive Planck's black-body formula. Einstein's treatment is extended here to time-dependent stochastic variables, which leads to a master equation for the probability ...
