Books:
* Elements of Statistical Mechanics (1954): This book, written with R.H. Fowler, became a standard textbook for graduate students in theoretical physics. It provided a comprehensive treatment of the principles and applications of statistical mechanics.
* Collected Papers of L.D. Landau (1965): This collection, edited by ter Haar, brought together the seminal works of the renowned Soviet physicist Lev Landau. It played a crucial role in disseminating Landau's influential ideas in physics.
* The Old Quantum Theory (1967): This book provides a historical account of the development of quantum mechanics in the early 20th century. It traces the evolution of ideas from Planck's quantum hypothesis to Bohr's atomic model.
* Selected Scientific Papers of J.H. van Vleck (1984): This collection, edited by ter Haar, showcases the important contributions of the American physicist John Hasbrouck van Vleck, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1977.
Other notable works:
* Numerous scientific articles published in prestigious journals such as "Physical Review," "Proceedings of the Royal Society," and "Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society."
* Contributions to the development of quantum field theory and statistical mechanics.
* He was a founding member of the International Institute of Physics in Utrecht, Netherlands.
Ter Haar's writings played a vital role in advancing the understanding of statistical mechanics and quantum physics. His books and papers are still widely read and cited by researchers and students in the field.
