The thermodynamic probability (denoted by W) is equal to the number of micro-states which realize a given macrostate, from which it follows that W ^ 1. The thermodynamic probability is connected with one of the basic macroscopic characteristics of the system, the entropy S, by the Boltzmann relation S = k ln W, where k is Boltzmann’s constant.
The thermodynamic probability is not a probability in a mathematical sense. It is used in statistical physics to determine the properties of systems which are in thermodynamic equilibrium (for which the thermodynamic
