Statistical Physics Course
Master core tools of statistical physics—ensembles, partition functions, Maxwell–Boltzmann speeds, and entropy—to connect microscopic dynamics with thermodynamic laws and sharpen your ability to model real gases and materials in professional physics work.

What will I learn?
This Statistical Physics Course gives you a compact, practical path from foundational ensembles to real-world estimates. Learn microcanonical and canonical formalisms, partition functions, entropy, and temperature, then connect them to kinetic theory, Maxwell–Boltzmann distributions, and numerical checks like mean free path, collision times, and thermal speeds, so you can confidently interpret data and validate models in your daily work.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Do fast order-of-magnitude checks for gases and validate classical assumptions.
- Compute Maxwell–Boltzmann speed distributions and extract key thermal speeds.
- Build microcanonical and canonical ensembles and derive core thermodynamic laws.
- Use partition functions to obtain U, F, S, and P for realistic many-particle systems.
- Interpret temperature and entropy microscopically, linking dynamics to the second law.
