Statistical Mechanics
Linked via "probability theory"
Statistical Mechanics is the branch of theoretical physics that uses probability theory to link the microscopic properties of individual atoms and molecules to the macroscopic, observable properties of bulk matter, such as temperature and pressure. It serves as the bridge between classical mechanics (or quantum mechanics) describing the system's constituent parts, and [thermodynamics](/entr…
