摘要
It is shown that a system made up of nuclei and electrons, the constituents of ordinary matter, has a well-defined statistical -mechanically computed free energy per unit volume in the thermodynamic (bulk) limit. This proves that statistical mechanics, as developed by Gibbs, really leads to a proper thermodynamics for macroscopic systems. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
