Escape velocity.
Applications:
Superconductivity; diving etc. many applications
Macrostate
Microstates:
Let the jth microstate is connected to wavefunction ψj and
energy Ej, so that,
ℋ ψj = Ejψj
Macroscopic property
Ensemble Averages : Example internal energy
U = <Ej> = Σj pj Ej

Statistical Mechanics
Internal Energy
U = <Ej> = Σj pj Ej
pj
One way
pj = the probability that the system in the ensemble has
energy Ej
Alternatively,
pj = the probability that the system is in the microstate j.

First part of the equation is independent of y
𝒇(𝒙)
𝒈′ (𝒚)
and the second part is independent of x
𝒈(𝒚)
And therefore 𝜷 is independent of both x and y.
