Nonequilibrium Statistical Operator for Systems of Finite Size

Abstract: The lifetime of statistical system is introduced. It is supposed that the nonequilibrium statistical operator implicitly contains the lifetime. The operations of taking of invariant part, averaging on initial conditions used in works of D.N. Zubarev, temporary coarse-graining (Kirkwood), choose of the direction of time are replaced by averaging on lifetime distribution. The expression for lifetime change at transitions from quasi-equilibrium system to nonequilibrium one is derived. A sort of the nonequilibrium statistical operator for systems of the finite sizes is suggested.
