Swiss-born American, contributed to condensed matter theory, especially involving statistical mechanics: phase transitions; derivation of hydrodynamical equations from microscopic kinetics; statistical mechanics of plasmas. The usual textbooks on statistical mechanics start with the microensemble but rather quickly switch to the canonical emsemble introduced by Gibbs. This debate is especially relevant to the relation between statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, and the physics of phase transition. This classic text, first published in 3993, is designed for graduate physics courses in statistical mechanics. Boltzmann's formula S=In[W(E)] defines the microcanonical ensemble.
