Statistical physics delves into the intricate properties of vast collections of particles, serving as a formidable theoretical framework with widespread applications across diverse scientific domains. This comprehensive textbook offers a thorough introduction to both classical and quantum statistical physics, seamlessly interweaving links to cutting-edge research areas. The first part of the book provides a foundational exploration of classical ensembles, offering a comprehensive review of quantum mechanics and elucidating how their convergence yields the theory of Bose and Fermi gases. This comprehensive approach enables a detailed examination of the quantum characteristics of matter, unveiling the enigmatic aspects of vacuum fluctuations. The second part delves into more advanced topics, such as the two-dimensional Ising model and quantum spin chains. This modern text is meticulously designed to cater to advanced undergraduate and graduate students with a keen interest in the pivotal role of statistical physics in contemporary research. Additionally, 140 carefully crafted homework problems reinforce key concepts and deepen readers' comprehension of the subject matter.
