A billiard ball in a rectangle with two circular ends: slight changes in initial conditions make such a big difference that eventually it could be anywhere. To be precise, we say its motion is ergodic

Social Networks and the Intention to Migrate CID Research Fellow & Graduate Student Working Paper No. 90 Miriam Manchin and Sultan Orazbayev March 2018 Abstract: Using a large individual-level survey spanning several years and more than 150 countries, we examine the importance of social networks in influencing individuals' intention to migrate internationally and locally. We distinguish close social networks (composed of friends and family) abroad and at the current location, and broad social networks (composed of same-country residents with intention to migrate, either internationally or locally). We find that social networks abroad are the most important driving forces of international migration intentions, with close and broad networks jointly explaining about 37% of variation in the probability intentions. Social networks are found to be more important factors driving migration intentions than work-related aspects or wealth (wealth accounts for less than 3% of the variation). In addition, we nd that having stronger close social networks at home has the opposite effect by reducing the likelihood of migration intentions, both internationally and locally. https://www.hks.harvard.edu/centers/cid/publications/fellow-graduate-student-working-papers/social-networks-migration

🔖 A different approach to introducing statistical mechanics Thomas A. Moore, Daniel V. Schroeder 🔗 https://arxiv.org/pdf/1502.07051.pdf 📌 ABSTRACT The basic notions of statistical mechanics (microstates, multiplicities) are quite simple, but understanding how the second law arises from these ideas requires working with cumbersomely large numbers. To avoid getting bogged down in mathematics, one can compute multiplicities numerically for a simple model system such as an Einstein solid -- a collection of identical quantum harmonic oscillators. A computer spreadsheet program or comparable software can compute the required combinatoric functions for systems containing a few hundred oscillators and units of energy. When two such systems can exchange energy, one immediately sees that some configurations are overwhelmingly more probable than others. Graphs of entropy vs. energy for the two systems can be used to motivate the theoretical definition of temperature, T=(∂S/∂U)−1, thus bridging the gap between the classical and statistical approaches to entropy. Further spreadsheet exercises can be used to compute the heat capacity of an Einstein solid, study the Boltzmann distribution, and explore the properties of a two-state paramagnetic system.
