Statistical Mechanics of Phase Transitions J. M. Yeomans
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA

Mathematical statistical mechanics. This classic text, first published in 3993, is designed for graduate physics courses in statistical mechanics. A new mean field statistical mechanics model of two interacting groups of spins is introduced and the phase transition studied in terms of their relative size. Much of condensed matter and statistical physics is concerned with the explanation of phase transitions between different forms of matter. Probability theory, random processes, stochastic analysis, statistical mechanics and stochastic simulation. A blog about research and teaching in physics (by Joel Corney) Gibbs free energy; First-order phase transitions; Thermodynamics of mixing; Chemical equilibrium; Continuous phase transitions and critical phenomena. The positions are funded by the ERC starting grant “Phase transitions and computational complexity”. The application deadline is June 12th, 2013. Professor John Aston Dr Ben Graham, Statistical mechanics and phase transition, the Isling model. That list covers a For most of these topics I'll use Schroeder's excellent book – for its clear and engaging style, focus on the essentials, and well-designed physics problems, even if it mixes in some statistical mechanics and is now over 10 years old.
