Q.1 What do you understand by phase space? State and prove Liouvilles theorem.
Or
Q.2 What do understand by Gibbs canonical ensemble? Define partition function and hence find out entropy of perfect monoatomic gas in canonical ensemble.
Q.3 What do you mean by Perfect Fermi Gas? Derive an expression for Fermi energy and Fermi temperature.
Or
Q.4 Discuss Bose-Einstein condensation for ideal Bose-Einstein gas.
Q.5 Derive Braggs law of X-ray diffraction in crystals. Give an account of powder method of crystal structure analysis.
Or
Q.6 List the various type of bonding in solids. Discuss the Heither and London theory of covalent bonding.
Q.7 What do you understand about Bloch function? Discuss Kroning-Penney model and hence explain origin of energy band.
Or
Q.8 What is Hall Effect? Give an elementary theory of Hall Effect and mention the important uses of Hall Effect.
Q.9Discuss Weiss theory of ferromagnetism and show from the plot of Langevin function, spontaneous magnetization exists below the Curie temperature and vanishes above the Curie temperature.
Or
Q.10 Explain type I and type II superconductors. Derive Londons equations and hence deduce Meissner effect.
