    Undergrad H-theorem and conservation of the Gibbs entropy

    Although my question is not about difference between definition of entropies, I can still provide a few references: 1. E.T. Jaynes, "Gibbs vs Boltzmann Entropies", Am. J. Physics, v. 33, 391 (1965); doi: 10.1119/1.1971557 2. R.H. Swendsen, J.-S. Wang, " The Gibbs "volume" entropy is incorrect"...

    Undergrad H-theorem and conservation of the Gibbs entropy

    My understanding of the Boltzmann's H-theorem is that if a set of a large number of colliding bolls is not in the thermodynamical equilibrium (i.e. the probability distribution function W doesn't obey the Maxwell distribution), its entropy will grow (without supplying heat) until the equilibrium...
