Canonical Ensemble:

Variables:

  • Number of Particles,
  • Volume,
  • Temperature,

Partition Function

Classical Partition Function (one-component system) in a three-dimensional space:

where:

  • , with being the Boltzmann constant,
  • is the potential energy, which depends on the coordinates of the particles (and on the interaction model)
