Abstract
The local H theorem is shown to hold for the Enskog equation with a modified Enskog factor proposed by the authors [Phys. Rev. E 111, 065108 (2025)]. This is a stronger statement than the global one in the same paper and has been obtained along the lines of Mareschal et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 52, 1169-1172 (1984)] for the modified (or revised) Enskog equation. Furthermore, it is shown that the local H theorem also holds for the corresponding Enskog-Vlasov equation.
