Introduction to statistical physicsand to computer simulations /[electronic resource] :by Joao Paulo Casquilho, Paulo Ivo Cortez Teixeira. - Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2015. - xv, 331 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Random walks -- Review of thermodynamics -- The postulates of statistical physics. Thermodynamic equilibrium -- Statistical thermodynamics--developments and applications -- The classical ideal gas -- The quantum ideal gas -- Magnetism -- The Ising model -- Liquid crystals -- Phase transitions and critical phenomena -- Irreversible processes.

Rigorous and comprehensive, this textbook introduces undergraduate students to simulation methods in statistical physics. The book covers a number of topics, including the thermodynamics of magnetic and electric systems; the quantum-mechanical basis of magnetism; ferrimagnetism, antiferromagnetism, spin waves and magnons; liquid crystals as a non-ideal system of technological relevance; and diffusion in an external potential. It also covers hot topics such as cosmic microwave background, magnetic cooling and Bose-Einstein condensation. The book provides an elementary introduction to simulation methods through algorithms in pseudocode for random walks, the 2D Ising model, and a model liquid crystal. Any formalism is kept simple and derivations are worked out in detail to ensure the material is accessible to students from subjects other than physics.
