متن کاملStatistical Physics ( PHY 831 ) : Part 1 - The foundations
Thermodynamics originated with the study of heat engines. A precursor to heat engines, the vacuum pump, was designed by the German scientist Otto von Guericke who, in 1650, created the world’s first ever vacuum in what are known as the Magdeburg hemispheres. He was driven to make a vacuum in order to disprove Aristotle’s long-held supposition that “Nature abhors a vacuum”. Shortly thereafter, I...
متن کاملAnalysis of Chain Reaction Between Two Stock Indices Fluctuations by Statistical Physics Systems
In this paper, we consider the statistical properties of chain reaction of stock indices. The theory of interacting systems and statistical physics are applied to describe and study the fluctuations of two stock indices in a stock market, and the properties of the interacting reaction of the two indices are investigated in the present paper. In this work, stochastic analysis and the two random ...
متن کاملSupergravity at One Loop Ii: Chiral and Yang-mills Matter
We present the full calculation of the divergent one-loop contribution to the effective boson Lagrangian for supergravity, including the Yang-Mills sector and the helicity-odd operators that arise from integration over fermion fields. The only restriction is on the YangMills kinetic energy normalization function, which is taken diagonal in gauge indices, as in models obtained from superstrings....
