Description

This lecture covers the concept of density of states in statistical thermodynamics, focusing on the counting of states in quantum mechanical systems and the distribution of energy levels. The instructor explains the use of Heaviside functions to determine the probability of different energy levels being populated, as well as the normalization of probability distributions. The lecture also delves into the assumptions made when calculating the density of states and the convolution of probability functions.
