Notes Gibb's paradox and its resolution Gibbs' paradox is a problem in statistical mechanics that arises when attempting to calculate the entropy of a mixture of two ideal gases. The paradox is that the entropy of ...
Notes Motion in a uniform magnetic field with finite E When analysing the motion of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field, it's essential to understand how different forces affect the particle's trajectory. Let's dive into the situation where ...
Notes Motion in a uniform magnetic field Motion in a uniform magnetic field is a fundamental concept in plasma physics and can be understood by considering the Lorentz force that acts on charged particles moving through the ...
Notes Debye Shielding Debye shielding is a concept from plasma physics and electrochemistry that describes how electric fields are screened or shielded in a plasma or electrolyte due to the presence of mobile ...
Notes Features of alkali spectra The spectra of alkali metals exhibit several distinct features due to their electronic structure. Alkali metals are found in Group 1 of the periodic table, and include elements like lithium ...
Notes Diatomic molecule as non rigid rotator In molecular physics and chemistry, the model of a diatomic molecule as a non-rigid rotator provides insight into how the molecule's rotation affects its energy levels. This model is an ...
Notes The magnetic moment of an electron The magnetic moment of an electron is a fundamental property related to its spin and charge. It arises due to the electron’s intrinsic angular momentum, or spin.In the absence ...
Notes Winger Eckart Theorem The Winger-Eckart theorem is a fundamental result in the field of quantum mechanics and group theory, particularly in the context of molecular and atomic physics. It provides a way to ...
