Comparison to the heat capacity data by Thomas et al. (6Li)
• Cloud size at 840G gives Energy at unitarity (Virial theorem)
• Cloud size at 1200G gives Entropy at unitarity (isentropic sweep)
The measurement of entropy is a conceptual advance owing to John Thomas et al., with accuracy at 1% level

Comparison to the heat capacity data by Jin et al. (40K)
• Cloud size at 202G gives potential energy at unitarity
• Noninteracting cloud size gives non-interacting temperature
We then re-analyze the JILA data of potential energy and noninteracting temperature to obtain the energy and entropy.
