One problem set is assigned each week, and is due the following week. Late homework will not be accepted.
There will be one midterm and one final exam, each counting for a quarter of the weights for assigning grades. The remaining half will be the homework.
The following is a list of books that I find useful:
- Reif. Fundamentals of Statistical and Thermal Physics.
- K. Huang. Statistical Mechanics.
- Pathria. Statistical Mechanics.
- Feynman. Statistical Mechanics.
- Landau and Lifshitz. Statistical Physics.
- S. K. Ma. Statistical Mechanics.
