Heinz, S. 2003 Statistical Mechanics of Turbulent Flows. Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, New York, Tokyo (ISBN: 3-540-40103-2). The simulation of turbulent reacting flows, connected with ...

In this new work, statistical mechanics is used to understand how different mathematical models "compete" when trying to explain a system. This matters because many scientific fields rely on ...

Chromosomes are masters of organization. These long strings of DNA fold down into an ensemble of compact structures that keep needed parts of the genome accessible while tucking away those that aren't ...

Single-cell omics is transforming our understanding of cell biology and disease, yet the systems-level analysis and interpretation of single-cell data faces many challenges. In this Perspective, we ...

Statistical mechanics is one of the pillars of modern physics. Ludwig Boltzmann (1844-1906) and Josiah Willard Gibbs (1839-1903) were its primary formulators. They both worked to establish a bridge ...

Statistical physics is a combination of the law of large numbers and the laws of mechanics. Developed at the turn of the twentieth century by Boltzmann and Gibbs, the theory has been extremely ...

Modeling of systems with emergent behavior. The course has two components: (1) basic and intermediate statistical mechanics, and (2) application of the course methods to a case study, chosen from ...

Statistical mechanics is the application of statistics, which includes mathematical tools for dealing with large populations, to the field of mechanics, which is concerned with the motion of particles ...

What do phases and phase transitions have in common with statistics one might ask. In everyday life we associate statistics with something unnatural invented by bureaucrats to put things and people ...

Paul D. Beale and R. K. Pathria have published the third edition “Statistical Mechanics.” The classic graduate-level textbook has been a leader in the field since Pathria published the first edition ...
