19世纪物理学的三项最高成就经热力学、电磁学与统计力学。其中统计力学奠基于麦克斯韦(J. Maxwell,1831-1879)、波耳兹曼(L. Boltzmann,1844-1905)与吉布斯(W. Gibbs,1839-1903)的工作。波耳兹曼曾经说过: 一位音乐家在听到几个音节后,即能辨认出莫扎特(Mozart)、贝多芬(Beethoven)或舒伯特(Schubert)的音乐。同样,一位数学家或物理学家也能在读了数页文字后辨认出柯西(Cauchy)、高斯(Gauss)、雅可比(Jacobi)、亥姆霍兹(Helmholtz)或克尔期豪夫(Kirchhoff)的工作。对于他的这一段话也许有人会发生疑问:科学是
Three Highest Achievements in 19th Century Physics by Thermodynamics, Electromagnetics and Statistical Mechanics. Statistical mechanics is based on the work of J. Maxwell (1831-1879), Boltzmann (1844-1905) and Gibbs (1839-1903). Boltzmann once said: A musician can recognize Mozart, Beethoven, or Schubert music after hearing a few syllables. Similarly, a mathematician or physicist can read Cauchy, Gauss, Jacobi, Helmholtz or Kel’Therough after reading several pages of text (Kirchhoff) work. Someone may wonder if he is in this passage: Science is
