Publisher's Synopsis

Quantum mechanics refers to a branch of physics concerned with the behavior of matter and light at the atomic and subatomic levels. It tries to explain the properties of molecules and atoms. It also seeks to describe the properties of the fundamental particles of atoms and molecules, which include neutrons, gluons, protons, quarks and electrons. Statistical mechanics is a branch of physics that uses probability theory to study the thermodynamic behavior of systems composed of several particles. It is helpful in the fundamental study of physical systems with multiple degrees of freedom. Statistical mechanics provides a framework for connecting microscopic properties of individual molecules and atoms to macroscopic bulk properties of materials that can be seen in everyday life. This book includes some of the vital pieces of works being conducted across the world, on key topics related to quantum and statistical mechanics. It consists of contributions made by international experts. A number of latest researches have been included to keep the readers up-to-date with the global concepts in this area of study.
