[QUOTE="Glenn G, post: 5666441, member: 600909"] Thanks Charles that's very interesting. Does this mean that seeing as the granularity in the change in position is the Planck's length (is this correct?) that even if only one particle moves by one Planck length then that's a different microstate? and that if this displacement can be in any random directions then wouldn't this mean that we are introducing an infinite number of possible microstates just for considering this one change OR seeing as there can't be an infinite number of microstates that the possible directional changes are also quantised (is there any such thing as the Planck angle?).
