This volume presents a collection of original and
peer-reviewed articles related with the applications of Statistical
Physics dedicated to Professor Dr Leopoldo García-Colín, in
commemoration of his 80th birthday in 2010. Professor García-Colín has
worked in many different fields of statistical physics, and has applied
it to biological physics, solid state physics, relativity and
cosmology. These are pioneering works of Prof García-Colín involved in
all various fields which have their roots in Mexico. His influence is
found in each of these works that cover a wide range of topics
including thermodynamics, statistical mechanics and kinetic theory
applied to biological systems, cosmology and condensed matter, among
others.
Papers contributed by important experts in the field, such as
J Lebowitz, as well as the latest classical applications of statistical
physics can be found in this volume.
