Quantum statistical mechanics

2021
Abstract Quantum statistical mechanics governs metals, semiconductors, and neutron stars. Statistical mechanics spawned Planck’s invention of the quantum, and explains Bose condensation, superfluids, and superconductors. This chapter briefly describes these systems using mixed states, or more formally density matrices, and introducing ...

Statistical Mechanics for a Class of Quantum Statistics

Physical Review Letters, 1994
Generalized 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 ...

The Statistical Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Reviews of Modern Physics, 1970
The Statistical Interpretation of quantum theory is formulated for the purpose of providing a sound interpretation using a minimum of assumptions. Several arguments are advanced in favor of considering the quantum state description to apply only to an ensemble of similarily prepared systems, rather than supposing, as is often done, that it exhaustively

Statistical Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Science, 1955
The published work for which the honor of the Nobel prize for the year 1954 has been accorded to me does not contain the discovery of a new phenomenon of nature but, rather, the foundations of a new way of thinking about the phenomena of nature. This way of thinking has permeated experimental and theoretical physics to such an extent that it seems ...
