Basic statistical mechanics. Applications to thermodynamics, kinetics, and transport of various engineering systems, including frontier areas of chemical and biological engineering. Not open to ...

WHERE a branch of science has been approached exclusively from the deductive side or exclusively from the experimental side, it is far easier to form a correct estimate of our state of knowledge in it ...

Chromosomes are masters of organization. These long strings of DNA fold down into an ensemble of compact structures that keep needed parts of the genome accessible while tucking away those that aren't ...

Statistical mechanics is one of the pillars of modern physics. Ludwig Boltzmann (1844–1906) and Josiah Willard Gibbs (1839–1903) were its primary formulators. They both worked to establish a bridge ...

To verify the effective spring constant, we tilt the entire apparatus by angle θ away from the normal, so that the ball is subjected to gravity, mgsinθ, within the plane. We find that the speed ...
