Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics
暫譯: 非平衡統計力學

統計力學提供了一個框架，用於將宏觀系統（如固體中的大量原子集合）的性質與其部分的微觀性質聯繫起來。

James H. Luscombe received a PhD in Physics from the University of Chicago in 1983. After post-doctoral positions at the University of Toronto and Iowa State University, he joined the Research Laboratory of Texas Instruments, where he worked on the development of nanoelectronic devices. In 1994, he joined the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA, where he is a professor of Physics. He was Chair of the Department of Physics from 2003 - 2009. He teaches a wide variety of topics, including general relativity, statistical mechanics, mathematical methods, and quantum computation. He has published more than 60 research articles, and has given more than 100 conference presentations; he holds 2 patents.

詹姆斯·H·盧斯科姆於1983年在芝加哥大學獲得物理學博士學位。在多倫多大學和愛荷華州立大學擔任博士後研究員後，他加入德州儀器的研究實驗室，專注於納米電子設備的開發。1994年，他加入加州蒙特雷的海軍研究生院，擔任物理學教授。他於2003年至2009年間擔任物理系主任。他教授多種主題，包括廣義相對論、統計力學、數學方法和量子計算。他已發表超過60篇研究文章，並在100多個會議上進行演講；他擁有2項專利。
