THE BOOK This textbook is written in a simple, logical and easy to understand way for the undergraduate as well as postgraduate students. It provides a comprehensive and extended coverage of the entire syllabus in the new choice based credit system. This book is equally beneficial to students for their effective and comprehensive preparation of JAM, JEST, NET, SET, GATE or other competitive examinations. Each topic in chapters is broken into several sub-sections and accompanied with detailed derivations and associated figures. Clear theoretical explanations which include experimental evidences will assist students to grasp concepts better. An extensive set of solved numerical problems (over 500) and multiple choice questions (over 400) with worked-out solutions are added at the end of each chapter. Short and long answer type questions and numerical problems have been furnished aplenty in exercise. The fundamental concepts such as macrostates, microstates, phase space, Ergodic hypothesis and the postulates of equal a-priori probability are discussed in depth to develop the foundation of equilibrium statistical mechanics. Idea of microcanonical, canonical and grand canonical ensembles are discussed in detail with a reference to the calculation of thermodynamic parameters such as pressure, volume, entropy, Helmholtz free energy, and Gibb's free energy of various types of systems like harmonic oscillator, classical ideal gas, two-level systems and paramagnetic systems etc. Boltzmann hypothesis relating entropy and thermodynamic probability, partition function, Gibb's paradox and its resolution, specific heat problems, an harmonic oscillator, concept of negative temperature, chemical potential and Saha ionization equation are presented in detail. Idea of identical and distinguishable, identical and indistinguishable particles, and their descriptions using symmetric and anti symmetric wave functions and the methods of state counting are introduced.
