Overview

This course aims to distinguish the basic methods of statistical physics and their application to some systems such as ideal gas, to distinguish between macroscopic states and microscopic states of physical systems, to study statistical calculations of quantities in thermodynamics and their application in quantitative statistical mechanics and the study of classical statistics represented by the Maxwell Boltzmann statistics, the study of velocities and their types in the Maxwell Boltzmann statistics, and the quantum mechanics of statistics, represented by the Fermi-Dirac statistics and the Bose Einstein statistics

Intended learning outcomes

The student distinguishes between classical and quantitative statistics, physical systems and their ophthalmic and microscopic states, and links them to the concept of statistical physics, and the student concludes the importance of statistical physics for studying complex physical systems, acquiring mathematical skills while dealing with statistical issues, and the ability to apply the laws of statistical physics in some laboratory experiments. The student uses statistical concepts to study The behavior of microparticles in materials

Teaching and learning methods

1- Theoretical lectures are integrated with various examples in each topic.2- Solving various exercises and issues collectively or individually inside the classroom.3- Using different references, whether they are books or electronic networks.4- Solving exercises and problems

Methods of assessments

The class work score represents 40% of the final total, divided into 20% for the first midterm exam, 20% for the second midterm exam, and the remaining 60% for the final exam
