1
Principle of equal a priori probability Principle of equal a priori probabilities: An isolated system, with N,V,E, has equal probability to be in any of the (N,V,E) quantum states or Each and every one of the (N,V,E) quantum states is represented with equally probability

Canonical ensembles Canonical N,V,T IIIIII A There are A identical replicas with same N,V, and T V=AxVV=AxV N=AxNN=AxN E Each microsystem has an energy value E j (N,V). Each E j is (E j ) times degenerate a l number of systems in state l, occupation number heat bath(T) Set of {a l } = distribution = a describes the state of the Ensemble A= j a j E= j a j E j One possible state of ensemble { 1 2 3 l E l E 1 E 2 … E l a l a 1 a 2 …a l

5
Distributions Principle of equal priori probability every {a} is equally probable Since there are A systems (each with energy E j ) there are A number distinguishable particles that can be distributed according to their a l value a 1 in group 1, a 2 in group 2, a l in group l … How many times a particular distribution can be found in the ENSEMBLE? We know the answer to this one, right?
