    BASIC STATISTICAL PHYSICS

    by Nandita Rudra (Retired, University Kalyani, India) & P Rudra (Retired, University Kalyani, India)

    This is a masters/graduate level textbook on statistical physics. The basics of the discipline and its application in the current topics of interest like Bose–Einstein condensate, statistical astrophysics and phase transitions have been discussed with thoroughness.

    This is a systematic introduction and development of a course material tried successful over a number of years. Feedback from the students tells that it has immensely helped them in their later research.
