Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The equation of state of an ionized gas has been investigated for electron densities below about 10(22 power) per cubic centimeter and temperatures below about 1,000,000 K. The gas is assumed to be monatomic, electrically neutral, and in thermodynamic equilibrium, but the composition of the gas is arbitrary, that is multiple ionization of any degree is allowed. The perfect gas approximation is found to be valid for electron densities at least as high as 10(16 power) per cubic centimeter, and in some cases, even higher. It is shown that approximations to the perfect gas expressions can be made which will greatly simplify calculations. It is also shown that blackbody radiation may be important at low densities. The classical corrections to the perfect gas expressions due to electrostatic forces and the finite size of particles which are obtained from the theories of Debye and Hucke, Mayer, and others, are investigated, and their limits of validity are determined. In some cases, improved expressions are derived and suitable approximations are suggested. It is noted that a fundamental weakness of the results based on the these theories is that a basic parameter, the distance of closest approach of charged particles, is not known accurately. Several approximate expressions for this distance are given. Quantum corrections for electron degeneracy and electron interactions are also given. Theories which are applicable at higher densities and temperatures than those of interest in this investigation are also discussed briefly. Finally, the equation of state of a dense, slightly ionized gas is derived.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study is made of the effect of potential perturbations on the equilibrium properties of a hard sphere system at both high and low densities. The perturbation is evaluated beyond the first order term for the second and third virial coefficients to estimate the region of convergence. The results of the first order perturbation from the virial expansion, superposition theory and free volume theory are compared. A comparison with experimental data is made to show the applicability of this perturbation from a hard sphere potential to the estimation of the equilibrium properties of a great variety of gases at moderately high temperatures.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a certain sense this book has been twenty-five years in the writing, since I first struggled with the foundations of the subject as a graduate student. It has taken that long to develop a deep appreciation of what Gibbs was attempting to convey to us near the end of his life and to understand fully the same ideas as resurrected by E.T. Jaynes much later. Many classes of students were destined to help me sharpen these thoughts before I finally felt confident that, for me at least, the foundations of the subject had been clarified sufficiently. More than anything, this work strives to address the following questions: What is statistical mechanics? Why is this approach so extraordinarily effective in describing bulk matter in terms of its constituents? The response given here is in the form of a very definite point of view-the principle of maximum entropy (PME). There have been earlier attempts to approach the subject in this way, to be sure, reflected in the books by Tribus [Thermostat ics and Thermodynamics, Van Nostrand, 1961], Baierlein [Atoms and Information Theory, Freeman, 1971], and Hobson [Concepts in Statistical Mechanics, Gordon and Breach, 1971].
Download or read book Thermodynamics And Equations Of State For Matter From Ideal Gas To Quark gluon Plasma written by Vladimr E Fortov and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2016-03-24 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The monograph presents a comparative analysis of different thermodynamic models of the equations of state. The basic ideological premises of the theoretical methods and the experiment are considered. The principal attention is on the description of states that are of greatest interest for the physics of high energy concentrations which are either already attained or can be reached in the near future in controlled terrestrial conditions, or are realized in astrophysical objects at different stages of their evolution. Ultra-extreme astrophysical and nuclear-physical applications are also analyzed where the thermodynamics of matter is affected substantially by relativism, high-power gravitational and magnetic fields, thermal radiation, transformation of nuclear particles, nucleon neutronization, and quark deconfinement. The book is intended for a wide range of specialists engaged in the study of the equations of state of matter and high energy density physics, as well as for senior students and postgraduates.

Book excerpt: Intermolecular potential functions and certain means by which they can be obtained from experiment were studied as the first step in the evaluation and development of a high density equation of state. The second virial coefficient was found to be a poor method for reduced temperatures (on the (12, 6) scale) greater than 2.0 while transport coefficients were found to be poor in the range 1.5 T* (12,6)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a comprehensive treatment of Statistical Mechanics from thermodynamics through the renormalization group, this book serves as the core text for a full-year graduate course in statistical mechanics at either the Masters or Ph.D. level. Each chapter contains numerous exercises, and several chapters treat special topics which can be used as the basis for student projects. The concept of scaling is introduced early and used extensively throughout the text. At the heart of the book is an extensive treatment of mean field theory, from the simplest decoupling approach, through the density matrix formalism, to self-consistent classical and quantum field theory as well as exact solutions on the Cayley tree. Proceeding beyond mean field theory, the book discusses exact mappings involving Potts models, percolation, self-avoiding walks and quenched randomness, connecting various athermal and thermal models. Computational methods such as series expansions and Monte Carlo simulations are discussed, along with exact solutions to the 1D quantum and 2D classical Ising models. The renormalization group formalism is developed, starting from real-space RG and proceeding through a detailed treatment of Wilson’s epsilon expansion. Finally the subject of Kosterlitz-Thouless systems is introduced from a historical perspective and then treated by methods due to Anderson, Kosterlitz, Thouless and Young. Altogether, this comprehensive, up-to-date, and engaging text offers an ideal package for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses or for use in self study.

Book excerpt: Statistical Physics provides an introduction to the basic principles of statistical mechanics. Statistical mechanics is one of the fundamental branches of theoretical physics and chemistry, and deals with many systems such as gases, liquids, solids, and even molecules which have many atoms. The book consists of three parts. Part I gives the principles, with elementary applications to noninteracting systems. It begins with kinetic theory and discusses classical and quantum systems in equilibrium and nonequilibrium. In Part II, classical statistical mechanics is developed for interacting systems in equilibrium and nonequilibrium. Finally, in Part III, quantum statistics is presented to an extent which enables the reader to proceed to advanced many-body theories. This book is written for a one-year graduate course in statistical mechanics or a half-year course followed by a half-year course on related subjects, such as special topics and applications or elementary many-body theories. Efforts are made such that discussions of each subject start with an elementary level and end at an advanced level.
