Examples
-
Accompanied by pounding thrash metal, the resulting chaos isn't so much intense as interminable, with wave after yawn-inducing wave running at you until something mercifully manages to eat Boltzmann's head.
-
Although Boltzmann's proposal was made in advance of quantum mechanics, his idea is similar to modern day theories that the universe arose from a quantum vacuum fluctuation.
-
Given the reorganization of the physics institutes, Boltzmann's apartment in the building at Türkenstrasse was ceded to Exner's institute as working rooms. 31 The collection of scientific instruments formerly belonging to the Physikalisches Kabinett was transferred to Exner's supervision. 32
-
In addition to his own laboratory courses in physics, Exner was obliged to direct Boltzmann's as well.
-
T is the absolute (Kelvin) temperature scale and k is Boltzmann's constant.

In the discussions concerning the problem of irreversibility that ensued after Boltzmann's work, attention was focussed on a fundamental assumption he made: the hypothesis with regard to collision numbers.
Philosophy of Statistical Mechanics Sklar, Lawrence 2009
-
The third of Einstein's seminal papers of 1905 concerned statistical mechanics, where he extended Boltzmann's work and provided evidence for the physical existence of atom-sized molecules, ideas that were independently proven by subsequent experimental work.

SB are known to be possible through the reversibility and recurrence objections to Boltzmann's

Hertz's and Boltzmann's picture (Bild) theories go well beyond Helmholtz's view.

Why should they have to memorize Boltzmann's constant when they could easily look it up when they needed it?
