1 answerI am quoting from "Equilibrium and non-Equilibrium Statistical Thermodynamics", by M. Bellac.$$Q_{(alpha, beta)} = sum_{N=0}^{infty} e^{alpha N} Z_{N}(alpha, beta) hspace{1cm} (3.127)$$Where $Q$ is the grand partition...

0 answerAs far as I can tell temperature seems to be defined as something like average kinetic energy per molecule, but not quite. It looks like it measures something proportional to...

2 answerSummary: at relativistic speeds, if you compute a planet's relative distance using angular diameter (roughly proportional to 1/angular diameter), will that computed distance increase or decrease linearly, assuming you are...

2 answerWhen people talk about topological order and Majorana fermions in a BCS superfluid, do they admit the existence of a massless Goldstone mode? (As I've heard that soft Goldstone mode...

1 answerMy confusion is about the different Hilbert spaces we meet in QFT. In a first introduction to QFT, the Hilbert space is often taken to consist of wavefunctionals on classical...
