Abstract
Spectra and correlations from RHIC are analyzed to determine the phase space density and total entropy. The phase space density for pions is higher and the entropy is thus lower than some expectations, but there seems to be enough entropy carried by other species, especially baryons, to roughly match the total entropy expected from lattice gauge calculations.
