I  PHENOMENOLOGICAL THERMODYNAMICS

1. Fundamental Concepts Temperature, thermal equilibrium, 0. law, heat, internal energy, work from a system, first law , thermodynamic states and processes, thermodynamic cycles,
2. Application of Fundamental Concepts Carnot and Stirling cycle, second law, entropy, Legendre Transform and potential functions (Free Energy, Enthalpy, Gibb's Potential), irreversible processes and change in entropy,
3. Open Systems, Real Gases, Phase Transitions

1. Isotropic particle distribution in space
2. Diffusion (1-dim) via particle hopping
3. entropy changes with volume alteration
4. energy distribution for distinguishable particles (Boltzmann- and Maxwell-distribution)
5. energy distribution for non-distinguishable Particles (Fermi-Dirac-, and Bose-Einstein-distribution)
6. Black Body Radiator (Planck's law)
7. Saha-Equation
