Lecture Description
This is a video of part of a lecture course in thermal and statistical physics I taught at the Catholic University of Korea in 2013.
This lecture includes:
- definition of a system of non-interacting, distinguishable particles (1:05)
- calculation of the canonical partition function of such a system (6:25)
