PROBLEMS OF DYNAMIC THEORY IN STATISTICAL PHYSICS; Problemy Dinamicheskoi Teorii v Statisticheskoi Fiziki
The formulation of general methods for the solution of kinetic equations in statistical physics by dynamic theory is presented. Systems based on the canonical distribution of Gibbs in the state of statistical equilibrium are investigated. Two types of power expansions were studied: one led directly to the known expansions of the theory of real gases of Ursell-Mayer and the other to Debye formulas in the first approximation in the theory of powerful electrolytes. Special methods for power expansions which lead to kinetic equations are discussed. To characterize the dynamic theory, a sequence of distribution functions which characterize the probable distribution for the complexes of s(s = 1.2.3....) molecules was introduced and a system of integro-differential equations was composed for them. The motion of molecules is discussed as an incidental process and a mechanism of binary collisions is introduced. The effective cross sections in the equation of the incidental process are computed from the equations of classical mechanics. (C.J.G.)
