8. m) parametrizing the partition Γ̂ that we had before. The difference between the α's and the β's arises from their different behavior under applying the time reversal π; the β's are the so called "velocity" variables that change their sign if the time is reversed; the α's are even functions under time reversal. In all cases, they are thermodynamic variables that are sums of a large number of molecular variables.

There is the inconvenience that different thermostats may give rise to different rates of phase space contraction under the same macroscopic conditions so that one needs very specific thermostats to get the phase space contraction coincide with the physical entropy production.
