Good just isn't good enough - Humean chances and Boltzmannian statistical physics [PDF]
, 2013 Statistical physicists assume a probability distribution over micro-states to explain thermodynamic behavior. The question of this paper is whether these probabilities are part of a best system and can thus be interpreted as Humean chances.

Statistical Physics of Adaptation
Physical Review X, 2016 Whether by virtue of being prepared in a slowly relaxing, high-free energy initial condition, or because they are constantly dissipating energy absorbed from a strong external drive, many systems subject to thermal fluctuations are not expected to behave

Magnetisation reversal in Ising ferromagnet by thermal and field gradients
Heliyon, 2018 We report the results of the magnetisation reversal in Ising ferromagnet having thermal and field gradients by Monte Carlo simulation. We have studied the distribution of reversal times for different values of thermal and field gradients and compared the

Physics And Statistics Of Medical Imaging [PDF]
SPIE Proceedings, 1989 Extraordinary progress has been made over the last two decades in the development and dissemination of new medical imaging technologies. The development of computed tomography, positron emission tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging, as well as major innovations to the conventional imaging modalities, have revolutionized medical diagnostic imaging.

Homotopy in statistical physics
Condensed Matter Physics, 2006 In condensed matter physics and related areas, topological defects play important roles in phase transitions and critical phenomena. Homotopy theory facilitates the classification of such topological defects.

Statistical Symmetries in Physics [PDF]
Australian Journal of Physics, 1994 Every law of physics is invariant under some group of transformations and is therefore the expression of some type of symmetry. Symmetries are classified as geometrical, dynamical or statistical. At the most fundamental level, statistical symmetries are expressed in the field theories of the elementary particles.

Interpretation in quantum physics as hidden curriculum [PDF]
, 2010 Prior research has demonstrated how the realist perspectives of classical physics students can translate into specific beliefs about quantum phenomena when taking an introductory modern physics course.
