The statistical mechanics of near-BPS black holes [PDF]
Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2020 Due to the failure of thermodynamics for low temperature near-extremal black holes, it has long been conjectured that a ‘thermodynamic mass gap’ exists between an extremal black hole and the lightest near-extremal state.

From quantum chaos and eigenstate thermalization to statistical mechanics and thermodynamics [PDF]
, 2015 This review gives a pedagogical introduction to the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH), its basis, and its implications to statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. In the first part, ETH is introduced as a natural extension of ideas from quantum

Many-Body Localization and Thermalization in Quantum Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
, 2014 We review some recent developments in the statistical mechanics of isolated quantum systems. We provide a brief introduction to quantum thermalization, paying particular attention to the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) and the resulting single-

Semiclassical Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
, 1997 We use a semiclassical approximation to derive the partition function for an arbitrary potential in one-dimensional Quantum Statistical Mechanics, which we view as an example of finite temperature scalar Field Theory at a point.

An Alternative Interpretation of Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
, 2018 In this paper I propose an interpretation of classical statistical mechanics that centers on taking seriously the idea that probability measures represent complete states of statistical mechanical systems. I show how this leads naturally to the idea that

Emergent statistical mechanics of entanglement in random unitary circuits [PDF]
Physical review B, 2018 We map the dynamics of entanglement in random unitary circuits, with finite on-site Hilbert space dimension $q$, to an effective classical statistical mechanics.

Statistical mechanics of multipartite entanglement [PDF]
, 2009 We characterize the multipartite entanglement of a system of n qubits in terms of the distribution function of the bipartite purity over all balanced bipartitions.

Solving Statistical Mechanics using Variational Autoregressive Networks [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2018 We propose a general framework for solving statistical mechanics of systems with finite size. The approach extends the celebrated variational mean-field approaches using autoregressive neural networks, which support direct sampling and exact calculation ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose A set of treatment planning strategies were designed and retrospectively implemented for locally advanced, non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in order to minimize cardiac dose without compromising target coverage goals. Methods Retrospective analysis was performed for 20 NSCLC patients prescribed to 60–66 Gy that received a ...
