Description

Book Synopsis
This book presents the main principles and methods of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics, a topic studied by both chemists and physicists. This book is written for graduate students and scientists who already have knowledge of basic equilibrium statistical mechanics and who are interested in the more complex field of time-dependent nonequilibrium statistical mechanics.

Table of Contents
1. Brownian Motion and Langevin equations ; 2. Fokker-Planck equations ; 3. Master equations ; 4. Reaction rates ; 5. Kinetic models ; 6. Quantum dynamics ; 7. Linear response theory ; 8. Projection operators ; 9. Nonlinear problems ; 10. The paradoxes of irreversibility ; Appendices
