In general, the process that we use to prepare a system of atoms, molecules or whatever we want for a measurement produces many copies, but not all in the same quantum state. A pure state in which all the molecules, say, are in the same state, is a limiting case. In general, the system will be in a mixed state.

Many-body theory stands at the foundation of modern quantum statistical mechanics. It is introduced here to graduate students in physics, chemistry, engineering and biology. The book provides a contemporary understanding of irreversibility, particularly in quantum systems.

Statistical Mechanics for a Class of Quantum Statistics
Physical Review Letters, 1994Generalized statistical distributions for identical particles are introduced for the case where filling a single-particle quantum state by particles depends on filling states of different momenta. The system of one-dimensional bosons with a two-body potential that can be solved by means of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz is shown to be equivalent ...

Interpreting Probabilities in Quantum Field Theory and Quantum Statistical Mechanics
, 2011In ordinary nonrelativistic quantum mechanics (QM), the observables pertaining to a system typically form the self-adjoint part of the algebra B(H) of bounded operators acting on a Hilbert space H.1 B(H) is an algebra of the genus von Neumann and the ...

The preceding formulation of statistical mechanics is perhaps the simplest application of probability theory to the many-body problem. Although it is consistent with the principles of quantum mechanics, it is not manifestly so. That is, the PME itself is based on the notions of information and measurement, but a general formulation should also ...

Quantum Mechanics and Statistics
1968In the previous chapters it was stated that the entropy of a system can be determined by statistical means by counting the number of micro-states in which the system may occur under the given conditions. By failing to enlarge upon this point, we have falsely given the impression that the way in which the count should be made was definitely established.
