Summary
Mastering Nonequilibrium Statistical Physics: A Comprehensive Guide
Statistical mechanics excels at describing physical systems in thermodynamic equilibrium. However, the real world is far more complex, with most natural phenomena occurring under nonequilibrium conditions. This second edition offers a comprehensive exploration of nonequilibrium statistical physics, delving into essential topics like:
- Langevin equations
- Lévy processes
- Fluctuation relat…
