内容简介

本书详细介绍了作为热力学和统计物理学基础的一些主要原理以及它们的应用。书中以非常清晰的方式介绍和讨论了热力学和统计物理学中一些核心的概念，通过非常丰富的实例来说明新的概念、方法和原理，对于相关的历史背景和发现过程也作了比较具体的描述。《热物理概念:热力学与统计物理学(第2版)》关于概念、原理和方法的应用涉及天体物理，大气物理，信息和通信理论，凝聚态物理等众多学科，体现了基本理论和方法的广泛适用性。此外，每章末包含了小结，可以深入学习的文献简介以及许多的习题，有助于加深对概念、原理和方法的理解。

An understanding of thermal physics is crucial to much of modern physics, chemistry and engineering. This book provides a modern introduction to the main principles that are foundational to thermal physics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. The key concepts are carefully presented in a clear way, and new ideas are illustrated with copious worked examples as well as a description of the historical background to their discovery. Applications are presented to

subjects as diverse as stellar astrophysics, information and communication theory, condensed matter physics and climate change. Each chapter concludes with detailed exercises.

The second edition of this popular textbook maintains the structure and lively style of the first edition but extends its coverage of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics to include several new topics, including osmosis, diffusion problems, Bayes theorem, radiative transfer, the Ising model and Monte Carlo methods. New examples and exercises have been added throughout.

对热物理学的理解对于现代物理学，化学和工程学中的许多至关重要。本书对热物理学，热力学和统计力学的基本原理进行了现代介绍。关键概念将以清晰的方式仔细呈现，并通过大量实例说明新思想，并描述其发现的历史背景。提出的应用涉及

恒星天体物理学，信息和通信理论，凝聚态物理学和气候变化等主题。每章以详细的练习结束。

这本流行教科书的第二版保留了第一版的结构和活泼的风格，但扩展了其对热力学和统计力学的涵盖范围，包括几个新主题，包括渗透，扩散问题，贝叶斯定理，辐射传递，伊辛模型和蒙特卡洛方法。全文中添加了新的示例和练习。

作者简介

Stephen Blundell did his undergraduate degree in Physics and Theoretical Physics at Peterhouse, Cambridge and his Ph. D. in the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge. He moved to the Clarendon Laboratory at Oxford to take up an SERC research fellowship, followed by a Junior Research Fellowship at Merton College, where he began research in organic magnets and superconductors using muon-spin rotation. In 1997 he was appointed to a University Lectureship in the Physics

Department and a Tutorial Fellowship at Mansfield College, Oxford, and was subsequently promoted to Reader and then Professor. He was a joint winner of the Daiwa-Adrian Prize in 1999 for his work on organic magnets.

Katherine Blundell did her undergraduate degree in Physics and Theoretical Physics at New Hall College, Cambridge and her Ph. D. in the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge. She moved to Oxford University Astrophysics department, holding a Junior Research Fellowship at Balliol College, an 1851 Research Fellowship, before taking up a Royal Society University Research Fellowship. Her research concentrates on radio galaxies and quasars. In 2005 she won a Leverhulme prize for her research, and became a Professor of Astrophysics in 2008.

斯蒂芬·布伦德尔（Stephen Blundell）在剑桥的彼得豪斯大学获得了物理学和理论物理学的学士学位，并在剑桥的卡文迪许实验室获得了博士学位。他搬到牛津的Clarendon实验室担任SERC研究奖学金，随后又在默顿学院担任初级研究奖学金，在那里他开始使用μ自旋旋转研究有机磁体和超导体。1997年，他被任命为物理系

的大学讲师，并在牛津的曼斯菲尔德学院担任导师，后来被提升为读者，然后是教授。由于他在有机磁铁方面的工作，他于1999年获得了Daiwa-Adrian奖的联合*军。

凯瑟琳·布伦德尔（Katherine Blundell）在剑桥新霍尔学院获得了物理学和理论物理学的本科学位，并在剑桥卡文迪许实验室获得了博士学位。她移居到牛津大学天体物理系，在Balliol College担任初级研究奖学金，这是1851年的研究奖学金，然后担任皇家学会大学的研究奖学金。她的研究集中于射电星系和类星体。2005年她赢得了勒伍豪奖，她的研究，并在2008年成为天体物理学教授
