Description for Statistical Mechanics of Lattice Systems: Volume 1: Closed-Form and Exact Solutions
hardcover. Volume one of this introduction to statistical mechanics contains an account of mean-field and cluster-variation methods used in solid-state physics and theoretical chemistry, and an account of exact results for the Ising and six-vertex models, and those derivable by transformation methods. Series: Theoretical and Mathematical Physics. Num Pages: 384 pages, 5 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PHF; PHS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 22. Weight in Grams: 724.
Most of the interesting and difficult problems in statistical mechanics arise when the constituent particles of the system interact with each other with pair or multi particle energies. The types of behaviour which occur in systems because of these interactions are referred to as cooperative phenomena giving rise in many cases to phase transitions. This book and its companion volume (Lavis and Bell 1999, referred to in the text simply as Volume 2) are princi pally concerned with phase transitions in lattice systems. Due mainly to the insights gained from scaling theory and renormalization group methods, this 1 subject has ... Read more
