This volume of proceedings of the XXII Winter Meeting on Statistical Physics provides an overview of the subjects of current interest in statistical physics. Topics discussed include analytical as well as computer studies of the equilibrium properties of fluids, electrolytes, dense polymer systems and colloidal mixtures, proton transfer dynamics, chaos in cellular automata, sandpile physics and avalanches, ballistic aggregation and the electric microfield in a plasma.

These proceedings contain new and exciting results on topics such as Dynamics of Pattern Formation, Phase Transitions and Textures of Langmuir Monolayers, Avalanches and Excitations in Granular Materials and Thermodynamic Instabilities in Random Superconductors, Thermodynamics, Equations of State and the Concept of Entropy in States Far from Equilibrium. Continuing with the interest in the behavior of Complex Fluids the reader will find a discussion on Micellar Growth, Interfacial Properties of Amphiphilic Systems, Electrolytes and Phase Transitions of Interfaces.

This volume of proceedings contains an updated glance at recent developments in statistical physics. Topics discussed include structural and transport properties of colloidal suspensions and polymeric systems, Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics simulations of fluids, topological aspects of wetting and other critical phenomena, reaction-diffusion equations and the statistical mechanics of solids under stress.
