The microstate of the system changes in time via Hamiltonian dynamics. Its entropy, at any time <i>t</i>, is given by the logarithm of the phase space volume of all the microstates giving rise to its macrostate at time <i>t</i>. The macrostates that we consider are defined by coarse graining the one-particle phase space into cells <span>(Delta _alpha )</span>.

Its change with time is due to (i) dispersal in physical space from free motion and to (ii) the collisions between particles which change their velocities.
