| prerequisite |
|---|
| Knowledge |
|---|
| Apart from knowledge of general physics at university level the student should be able to use basic facts from quantum mechanics and theoretical physics. |
| learning outcomes |
|---|
| The students will understand how macroscopic thermodynamic phenomena correspond with the particle structure of mass. They will be able to explain thermodynamic processes based on statistical behaviour of microparticle assemblies. They will be acquainted with behaviour of electron and photon gases. |
