Thermal and Statistical Physics

By Oyewande Oluwole

This book provides an introduction to the theoretical framework of thermal physics, statistical physics and statistical physics simulations of condensed matter at undergraduate level. Starting from the basic definitions of thermal physics, it treats the basic concepts and then introduces the reader to the mathematics of thermal physics in a self-contained approach which requires very little, if any, mathematical rigor. Thermal physics is presented throughout as a purely macroscopic and phenomenological theory. It then presents statistical physics as the microscopic theory of thermal physics, treating its essentials as requisite ingredients of statistical physics simulations at introductory level.
