L'entropie d'un gaz idéal de particules, classiques ou quantiques, est maximisée lorsque la densité du nombre de particules, l'impulsion et l'énergie sont fixées. La loi de dispersion qui relie l'impulsion et l'énergie est linéaire ou quadratique, selon que le comportement des particules est non relativiste ou relativiste.

The entropy of an ideal gas, both in the case of classical and quantum particles, is maximised when the number particle density, linear momentum and energy are fixed. The dispersion law energy to momentum is chosen as linear or quadratic, corresponding to non-relativistic or relativistic behaviour.
