Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics
by Gunnar Pruessner
Publisher: Imperial College London 2011
Number of pages: 51
Description:
This is an attempt to deliver, within a couple of hours, a few key-concepts of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. The goal is to develop some ideas of contemporary research. Many of the ideas are illustrated or even introduced by examples.
