Statistical physics

a change of ground-state phase at zero temperature driven by a parameter such as field or pressure, with critical behaviour governed by quantum fluctuations.

In statistical physics, quantum phase transition refers to a change of ground-state phase at zero temperature driven by a parameter such as field or pressure, with critical behaviour governed by quantum fluctuations. This meaning comes from Sondhi (1997) in Reviews of Modern Physics.[1]
