I studied a particular subject called. Actually it is neither really about statistics nor about mechanics but rather about the theory of phase transitions. His area of specialization is Statistical Physics – Dynamics of Non-equilibrium Systems, Phase Transitions and Disordered Systems. Topics from modern statistical mechanics are explored in 8.334: the hydrodynamic limit and classical field theories. Now, in Physical Review Letters, Ashivni Shekhawat at Cornell In this case, it has been shown that fracture of a disordered three-dimensional solid can be viewed as a dynamic phase transition: the crack front “depins” itself from the disorder [3]. Semi-classical theory of radiation. Critical phenomena are what happens near a phase transition in statistical mechanics (stat mech is thermodynamics' sophisticated sibling). But we can also turn it around: “Physics is informational”. Thermodynamic and Statistical Physics First- and second-order phase transitions. Relativistic quantum mechanics: Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations. Although system size and disorder are linked in a statistical physics description of fracture, the two parameters have typically been treated separately. Applied probability theory, mathematical statistical mechanics. 6:00 – 8:00 Non-equilibrium phase transitions and random ordering in driven suspensions of rods. One way to detect a quantum phase transition is simply to notice that ground state depends very sensitively on the parameters near such a point. Interacting particle systems, nonequilibrium phase transitions, hydrodynamic limits. Why people with certain genes can control hiv without therapy: from statistical mechanics to the clinic. Phase transitions and broken symmetries: universality, correlation functions, and scaling theory.
