Statistical Mechanics: Canonical Ensemble

Covers statistical physics, isolated systems, entropy, and the Boltzmann distribution.

Explores the statistical definition of entropy, adatoms on a surface, and mixing in a solid solution.

Covers the theory and practical aspects of Monte Carlo simulations in molecular dynamics, including ensemble averages and Metropolis algorithm.

Covers the transition from quantum to classical mechanics, statistical mechanics, Monte Carlo simulations, and molecular dynamics simulations.

Covers microstates, macrostates, entropy, and density of states in statistical mechanics.
