Core Theoretical Topics

Kinetic Theory of Gases: Focuses on the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution of velocities, mean free path, transport phenomena (viscosity, thermal conduction, and diffusion), and deviations from ideal gas behavior (Van der Waals equation of state).
The Laws of Thermodynamics: In-depth mathematical treatments of the Zeroth, First, and Second Laws, including the concepts of internal energy, entropy, Carnot engine efficiency, and thermodynamic scale of temperature.
Thermodynamic Relations: Comprehensive application of Maxwell’s relations and Jacobian determinants to solve complex partial derivatives in thermodynamic transformations.
Thermodynamic Potentials: Analysis of Helmholtz free energy, Gibbs free energy, Enthalpy, and internal energy alongside conditions for chemical equilibrium and phase transitions (Clausius-Clapeyron equation).
Radiation and Blackbody Basics: Detailed mathematical derivations of Stefan-Boltzmann law, Wien’s displacement law, and Planck’s quantum theory of radiation.
Introduction to Statistical Mechanics: Foundational concepts covering macrostates, microstates, phase space, ensembles, and brief overviews of Maxwell-Boltzmann, Bose-Einstein, and Fermi-Dirac statistics.
