Yet, most textbooks on quantum statistics focus on examples from and applications in condensed matter systems, due to the prevalence of solids and liquids in our day-to-day lives. In an attempt to remedy that oversight, this book consciously focuses on teaching the subject matter in the context of (dilute) gases and plasmas, while aiming primarily at graduate students and young researchers in the field of quantum gases and plasmas for some of the more advanced topics. The majority of the material is based on a two-semester course held jointly by the authors over many years, and has benefited from extensive feedback provided by countless students and co-workers. The book also includes many historical remarks on the roots of quantum statistics: firstly because students appreciate and are strongly motivated by looking back at the history of a given field of research, and secondly because the spirit permeating this book has been deeply influenced by meetings and discussions with several pioneers of quantum statistics over the past few decades.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;953Plasma (Ionized gases)Phase transformations (Statistical physics)Condensed materialsStatistical physicsPlasma Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24040Quantum Gases and Condensateshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24033Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090Plasma (Ionized gases).Phase transformations (Statistical physics).Condensed materials.Statistical physics.Plasma Physics.Quantum Gases and Condensates.Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systems.530.133‡a Ebeling Werner1936-authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1380576Pöschel Thorstenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996466808803316Lectures on Quantum Statistics3422348UNISA
