Applications of Ensemble Theory to Real Gases -- Problem Set VIII. Ensemble Theory and the Nonideal Gas (Chapters 1819) -- 20. Whence and Whither -- PART SEVEN. APPENDICES -- A. Physical Constants and Conversion Factors -- B. Series and Integrals -- C. Periodic Table -- D. Mathematical Procedures -- E. Thermochemical Data for Ideal Gases -- F. Summary of Classical Thermodynamics -- G. Review of Classical Mechanics -- H. Review of Operator Theory -- I. The Spherical Coordinate System -- J. Electronic Energy Levels -- K. Energy-Mode Parameters for Molecules -- L. Normal Mode Analysis -- M. Tabulation of Debye Function -- N. MaxwellBoltzmann Energy Distribution -- O. Force Constants for the LennardJones Potential -- P. Collision Integrals for Calculating Transport Properties from the LennardJones Potential -- Q. Reduced Second Virial Coefficient from the LennardJones Potential -- R. References and Acknowledgments
Building on the Maxwell-Boltzmann method of step-by-step development of the subject, this book makes few presumptions concerning students' previous exposure to statistics, quantum mechanics, or spectroscopy. The book begins with the fundamentals of statistical thermodynamics, pauses to recover needed knowledge from quantum mechanics and spectroscopy, and then moves on to applications involving ideal gases, the solid state, and radiation. A full introduction to kinetic theory is provided, including its applications to transport phenomena and chemical kinetics. Modern applications, such as laser-based diagnostics, are also discussed.
