宇宙学多体问题的统计力学及其与星系成团的关系

Statistical Mechanics of the Cosmological Many-body Problem and its Relation to Galaxy Clustering

W. C. Saslaw, A. Yang

摘要:

宇宙学的多体问题实际上是一个膨胀宇宙中引力相互作用质量的无限系统。尽管相互作用具有长程性质,但统计力学的分析理论描述了适用于许多宇宙学的准平衡条件下产生的空间和速度分布函数。这一理论的结果与观测到的星系分布非常吻合。进一步的结果,如热力学提供了深入了解这个系统的物理性质,包括其稳健性合并,其过渡从一个巨正则系综的集合与负比热的微正则系综。

英文摘要:

The cosmological many-body problem is effectively an infinite system of gravitationally interacting masses in an expanding universe. Despite the interactions' long-range nature, an analytical theory of statistical mechanics describes the spatial and velocity distribution functions which arise in the quasi-equilibrium conditions that apply to many cosmologies. Consequences of this theory agree well with the observed distribution of galaxies. Further consequences such as thermodynamics provide insights into the physical properties of this system, including its robustness to mergers, and its transition from a grand canonical ensemble to a collection of microcanonical ensembles with negative specific heat.
