Statistical Physics of Nanoparticles in the Gas Phase
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
9783031901577 (ISBN)
The book develops the tools to describe equilibrium thermal properties and near-equilibrium processes of finite size particles, with the emphasis on gas phase particles. Numerous examples illustrate the theory. The text offers recipes for solving commonly encountered problems arising in the description of nanophase gas particles. Each chapter contains exercises spanning from easy to advance and four appendices provide additional useful information.
This revised and updated third edition provides the reader with new sections, a new chapter on kinetic energy distributions, a new appendix on probability distributions and a wealth of exercises.
Klavs Hansen graduated from the Niels Bohr Institute with a Ph.D. in experimental cluster physics in 1991. He has worked in nanoscience in several countries and since 2016 in Tianjin, China. He has co-authored 200 peer reviewed papers, with a focus on dynamics and thermodynamics of finite size systems.
