A survey of the ensembles of statistical mechanics

Hi everyone!

In this video I spend time reviewing the physical context of the three main ensembles of statistical mechanics. I then go on and review two modern concepts: the generalized Gibbs ensemble and the eigenstate ensemble.

The video is meant to be a survey so if you want something more indepth on any topic let me know.
