This book is self sufficient, written in a lucid manner, keeping in mind
the exam system of the universities. Need of study this subject and its
relation to Thermodynamics is discussed in detail. Starting from Liouville
theorem gradually, the Statistical Mechanics is developed thoroughly. All
three types of Statistical distribution functions are derived separately
with their periphery of applications and limitations. Non-interacting
ideal Bose gas and Fermi gas are discussed thoroughly. Properties of
Liquid He-II and the corresponding models have been depicted. White dwarfs
and condensed matter physics, transport phenomenon – thermal and
electrical conductivity, Hall effect, Magneto resistance, viscosity,
diffusion, are discussed. Basic understanding of Ising model is given to
explain the phase transition. The book ends with a detailed coverage to
the method of ensembles (namely Microcanonical, canonical and grand
canonical) and their applications. Various numerical and conceptual
problems are worked out and some are left for the readers. Overall the
book is designed for all category of learner with a very different
approach relative to major available books.
