Quantum Statistics 15 : Boltzmann Factor

[@jarvisnc]

Thank you for producing these videos! IMHO you're an excellent teacher! Question: Between 14:06 and 15:30, when you're replacing the entropy difference with the energy difference, shouldn't the stuff to the right of the probability ratio be exponentiated, like it is when you re-write it at 15:55?

[@GrenadianToTheBone]

same question here haha

[@AaronFresh09]

Took me a long time but I finally was able to understand the framework of the argument thanks to this video. You're the only one doing videos at this level I've seen so I commend you for that however your explanations could use some details in explanations. Though I understand you want to keep it short and appreciate I think if you spend a little time preparing how you will lay out the argument the lesson will be much more elegant

[@LibertyAzad]

A particularly good explanation of the Boltzmann factor. Many thanks!

This was really helpful, thanks Adam!

You're very welcome

Adam: the Universe doesn't change Expanding Universe: Am I joke to you?

[@nic741]

Recommendation: please distinguish between macro and micro state. Ex: An Atom with Macro State s1 can be in many many different micro states which correspond to the macroscopic properties of s1

[@lachlangray8120]

Amazing video, thanks so much! There's just one thing I'm not clear on, are states mutually accessible? i.e. if s1 is accessible from s2, is the opposite true?

best video ever

Great man, thanks

[@leszyeuxdewam]

great video! Thanks a lot!

[@youspinmerightrounds]

Thanks for your feedback! I'm glad it helped!

[@avivmoshe2]

is video no.16 (partition function) will be here again? thanks!

[@youspinmerightrounds]

I hope to re-record video #16 on the partition function but realistically I won't get around to that for a number of weeks. Apologies for this. You can find all my other videos on my website www.universityphysicstutorials.com

[@hatsikujimayonez]

+Adam Beatty two years later and there's still not #16 on the list? But thanks for the video, you explain things very clearly.

[@oViTaLZzHD]

Need number 16!!!!
