А чего тут понимать? Химическая физика - это раздел физики, а физическая химия - раздел химии. Просто же всё.
Только на первый взгляд. Публикации одних и тех же авторов по одной и той же тематике могут спокойно сосуществовать, например, в J. Phys. Chem. и в J. Chem. Phys.

Теряюсь в догадках...

-- 19.01.2013, 03:45 --Если честно, я не в курсе, чем статмеханика выделяется в статфизике.
Разница тонкая и до конца мне самому не понятная. Возможно, статмеханика более строго подходит к расчетам. Например, теория Ландау фазовых переходов вряд ли может считаться принадлежащей к статмеханике. но к статфизике - вполне. Т. е., возможно, из статмеханики исключается вся (почти) феноменология (?).
Вот что дает Wiki (выделение мое):

Statistical physics is the branch of physics that uses methods of probability theory and statistics, and particularly the mathematical tools for dealing with large populations and approximations, in solving physical problems. It can describe a wide variety of fields with an inherently stochastic nature. Its applications include many problems in the fields of physics, biology, chemistry, neurology, and even some social sciences, such as sociology. Its main purpose is to clarify the properties of matter in aggregate, in terms of physical laws governing atomic motion.[1]
In particular, statistical mechanics develops the phenomenological results of thermodynamics from a probabilistic examination of the underlying microscopic systems. Historically, one of the first topics in physics where statistical methods were applied was the field of mechanics, which is concerned with the motion of particles or objects when subjected to a force.

Statistical mechanics provides a framework for relating the microscopic properties of individual atoms and molecules to the macroscopic or bulk properties of materials that can be observed in everyday life, therefore explaining thermodynamics as a natural result of statistics, classical mechanics, and quantum mechanics at the microscopic level. Because of this history, the statistical physics is often considered synonymous with statistical mechanics or statistical thermodynamics.

The terms statistical mechanics and statistical thermodynamics are used interchangeably. Statistical physics is a broader term which includes statistical mechanics, but is sometimes also used as a synonym for statistical mechanics
