Download or read book Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics written by Robert Zwanzig and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2001-05-17 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a presentation of the main ideas and methods of modern nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. It is the perfect introduction for anyone in chemistry or physics who needs an update or background in this time-dependent field. Topics covered include fluctuation-dissipation theorem; linear response theory; time correlation functions, and projection operators. Theoretical models are illustrated by real-world examples and numerous applications such as chemical reaction rates and spectral line shapes are covered. The mathematical treatments are detailed and easily understandable and the appendices include useful mathematical methods like the Laplace transforms, Gaussian random variables and phenomenological transport equations.
