Statistical mechanics of bosons with attractive interaction

In order to obtain meaningful results for a system of bosons interacting via a potential containing a long-ranged attraction, the coupling of low momentum particles with high momentum particles has to be taken into account. The method of thermal Green’s functions applied to this problem leads to involved graphical calculations even for temperatures close to the absolute zero. It is shown that the problem can be tackled much more simply and profitably by obtaining an effective hamiltonian for low momentum particles in a manner similar to that adopted in the recent renormalisation group approach to critical phenomena. The occurrence of anomalous pairings is avoided by performing suitable Bogolubov transformations. The procedure gives the quasiparticle spectrum besides yielding an explicit expression for the free energy in the low temperature limit. The results agree with those derived by Green’s function methods using partial summations.     

Statistical mechanics of viscoelasticity

A unified treatment of viscoelasticity is developed in the framework of non-equilibrium classical statistical mechanics. An exact correspondence between Mori's continued-fractions formalism and rheological circuits is shown.     

Statistical mechanics of money

In a closed economic system, money is conserved. Thus, by analogy with energy, the equilibrium probability distribution of money must follow the exponential Boltzmann-Gibbs law characterized by an effective temperature equal to the average amount of money per economic agent. We demonstrate how the Boltzmann-Gibbs distribution emerges in computer simulations of economic models. Then we consider a thermal machine, in which the difference of temperatures allows one to extract a monetary profit. We also discuss the role of debt, and models with broken time-reversal symmetry for which the Boltzmann-Gibbs law does not hold. The instantaneous distribution of money among the agents of a system should not be confused with the distribution of wealth. The latter also includes material wealth, which is not conserved, and thus may have a different (e.g. power-law) distribution. Received 22 June 2000     

Statistical mechanics of interfaces

On the basis of van der Waals theory for interfaces we evaluate explicitly the small-wavevector behavior of the pair correlation function along an interface. A correction to the density profile is also found. The results obtained are in full accord with capillary wave theory when wave amplitudes are regarded as small.     

Statistical mechanics of confined systems with rotational excitations

New experimental and numerical investigations of confined systems of particles demonstrate the existence of rotational excitations. We develop here a statistical theory of finite systems, including rotational modes, by introducing the angular momentum into the formalism and constructing the relevant distributions. As special applications we study systems driven to a prescribed kinetic energy by negative friction or special isokinetic thermostats. Several distribution functions which are solutions of the Liouville or Fokker–Planck equations are given. The theory is applied to Coulomb clusters confined by parabolic forces.     

Statistical mechanics of semiflexible polymers

We present the statistical-mechanical theory of semiflexible polymers based on the connection between the Kratky-Porod model and the quantum rigid rotator in an external homogeneous field, and treatment of the latter using the quantum mechanical propagator method. The expressions and relations existing for flexible polymers can be generalized to semiflexible ones, if one replaces the Fourier-Laplace transform of the end-to-end polymer distance, 1/(k ²/3 + p), through the matrix , where D and M are related to the spectrum of the quantum rigid rotator, and considers an appropriate matrix element of the expression under consideration. The present work provides also the framework to study polymers in external fields, and problems including the tangents of semiflexible polymers. We study the structure factor of the polymer, the transversal fluctuations of a free end of the polymer with fixed tangent of another end, and the localization of a semiflexible polymer onto an interface. We obtain the partition function of a semiflexible polymer in half space with Dirichlet boundary condition in terms of the end-to-end distribution function of the free semiflexible polymer, study the behaviour of a semiflexible polymer in the vicinity of a surface, and adsorption onto a surface.Received: 23 March 2004, Published online: 23 July 2004PACS: 36.20.-r Macromolecules and polymer molecules - 61.41. + e Polymers, elastomers, and plastics - 82.35.Gh Polymers on surfaces; adhesion     

Statistical mechanics of classical systems

An algebra of thermodynamic operators of the fluctuations of physical quantities in classical statistical mechanics is found and its properties studied. A method is proposed for obtaining equations that describe the equilibrium and nonequilibrium statistical ensembles of classical systems.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 6, pp. 6–11, May, 1980.     

Statistical mechanics of superfluid models

It is shown that the equilibrium thermodynamic properties of some superfluid models can be calculated by using density matrices defined in suitable irreducible representations. The approach enables one to introduce in a fundamental manner temperature-dependent order parameters and can be used to obtain general formulations of the problems of superfluids.     

Statistical mechanics of Cassie's law

The wetting of chemically heterogeneous surfaces is typically discussed in terms of Cassie's law (1948, Discuss. Faraday Soc., 3, 11), which defines the cosine of the contact angle in terms of an average over the different chemical regions, weighted by their relative surface coverage. This paper derives an exact formulation of Cassie's law, in the context of the wetting of chemically patterned substrates. Deviations from Cassie's law arise from quasi-two-dimensional fluid-mediated interactions, analogous to solvation forces.     

Statistical mechanics of prion diseases

We present a two-dimensional, lattice based, protein-level statistical mechanical model for prion diseases (e.g., mad cow disease) with concomitant prion protein misfolding and aggregation. Our studies lead us to the hypothesis that the observed broad incubation time distribution in epidemiological data reflect fluctuation dominated growth seeded by a few nanometer scale aggregates, while much narrower incubation time distributions for innoculated lab animals arise from statistical self-averaging. We model "species barriers" to prion infection and assess a related treatment protocol.     

Statistical mechanics of two-dimensional vortices

Equilibrium statistics of a cluster of a large number of positive two-dimensional point vortices in an infinite region and the associated thermodynamic functions, exhibiting negative temperatures, are evaluated analytically and numerically from a microcanonical ensemble. Extensive numerical simulations of vortex motion are performed to verify the predicted equilibrium configurations. An application of Kubo's linear response theory is used to study the nonequilibrium situation that results from placing a cluster, of vortices in a weak external velocity field, such as that produced by a distant vortex cluster. The weak field causes the cluster to grow in size as if there were an effective positive eddy viscosity. When a number of clusters interact, the effect is for each to grow while the distances between them decrease with time. The latter effect is an exhibit of negative viscosity. The application of this to the motion of the atmosphere is discussed.Supported in part by National Science Foundation Grant GK-40263.Advanced Study Program, National Center for Atmospheric Research (sponsored by the National Science Foundation).     

Statistical mechanics of rotating systems

A microcanonical distribution function depending on the total energyE and thez-componentM of the total angular momentum of a rotating system is examined. ForM=0 the generalized microcanonical ensemble is found to give the same entropy as the usual microcanonical ensemble. The moment of inertia of a rotating gas is calculated, and the kinetic energy of rotation is given as a power series in the small parameterM ²/2I ₀E_int, whereI ₀ is the moment of inertia of the gas at rest andE _int the internal energy.
