Boltzmann 1877 — Über die Beziehung zwischen dem zweiten Hauptsatze der mechanischen Wärmetheorie und der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung
chain
L. Boltzmann (1877). Über die Beziehung zwischen dem zweiten Hauptsatze der mechanischen Wärmetheorie und der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung. Sitzungsber. Kais. Akad. Wiss. Wien, Math.-Naturwiss. Cl. 76 (1877) 373–435. Cited by its record. License as found: public domain (the author died more than a century ago, or the work was published before 1930). What it gave the chain: entropy as the logarithm of the number of microstates, S = k log W.
