Statistical mechanics — many microstates, one macrostate
thermodynamics
The bridge from the reversible microscopic law to the irreversible macrostate: 10^23 particles, one temperature and one pressure. Boltzmann S = k_B ln W counts the microstates; the macrostate is what almost all the Hamiltonian's trajectories reach. 'Many into one', statistically. Rests on the Hamiltonian.
