課程簡述 This course covers basic topics in statistical mechanics including entropy, microcanonical/canonical ensembles, quantum statistics, photons, boson, fermions etc.
The details will not be discussed but I will focus on the essence of each field.
Discussions about physics and astrophysics can be also included.
This course will make use of classroom S203 in the college of science building.

The statistical mechanics part is scheduled as follows.
Note that the contents can change depending on students' understanding.
01. (15 Feb): Introduction to the statistical mechanics class
02. (22 Feb): The closed system or the microcanonical ensemble
03. (01 Mar): The system in thermal contact with a reservoir 1
04. (08 Mar): The system in thermal contact with a reservoir 2
05. (15 Mar): Quantum statistics
06. (22 Mar): The density of states
07. (29 Mar): Some problems
08. (05 Apr): Day-off (Children's day)
09. (12 Apr): The gas of photons (Midterm assignment is distributed)
10. (19 Apr): Review of the previous classes/Q&A
11. (26 Apr): Atomic vibration in solids (Deadline for the midterm assignment)
12. (03 May): The boson gas at low temperature 1
13. (10 May): The boson gas at low temperature 2
14. (17 May): The gas of fermions 1
15. (24 May): The gas of fermions 2
16. (31 May): A history of statistical mechanics (Final assignment is distributed)
17. (07 Jun): Review of the previous classes/Q&A
18. (14 Jun): Deadline for the final assignment
