熱統計物理一 (Thermal and Statistical Physics I)
<br>
<br>一、課程說明(Course Desc<x>ription)
<br>
<br>Statistical thermodynamics is a course in which we study macroscopic systems 
<br>from microscopic point of view. The goal of statistical thermodynamics is to 
<br>understand macroscopic phenomena and to predict macroscopic properties from the 
<br>individual molecules making up the system. In this course, I will introduce the 
<br>concept of statistical physics to students and make the connection of the 
<br>statistical physics with the thermodynamics. 
<br>
<br>先修知識: 需要有熱力學的基本知識，修習本課程才比較不會有障礙。
