How would one derive the equation of thermal stress?

The equation of thermal stress is: Stress =$frac{F}{A}$ = -$E$ $a$ $dT$, where $E$ is Young's Modulus, $a$ is the coefficient of linear thermal expansion, and $dT$ is the change...

Hypothetical sources of partition function of a quantum theory of gravity

Let's assume there exists a partition function $Z[J_i]$ for a theory of quantum gravity, with a family of sources $(J_i)_i$. Given the Palatini action in 3+1 dimensions:...

Why must the eigenstate of an operator correspond to a particle?

I was studying identical particles in Quantum Mechanics, when I came across the notion of the 'exchange operator' acting on a two-particle wavefunction, $psi_(x_1, x_2)$, in one dimension: ...
