In the citing paper
“One starts with a nonequilibrium system with energy E in which the kinetic energy K is larger than what it would be for an equilibrium system with the same energy E . The system will evolve towards equilibrium with a Maxwellian velocity distribution at temperature T ∞ = 2 3 k K E where K E is the equilibrium kinetic energy corresponding to E .”

In the citing paper
“However, since the microstates corresponding to the initial situation just described are not typical for the macrostates Γ f 0 , this example does not contradict the typical second law behavior of S ( f t ).”
From On the (Boltzmann) entropy of non-equilibrium systems (2004) · cites this paper as [16]
In the citing paper
“Assuming that f 0 is a Maxwellian with temperature T 0 we will have T ∞ < T 0 and so S gas ( f ∞ ) < S gas ( f 0 ).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
