contents In this work, the concept of QCD dynamical entropy is extended to heavy ion systems. This notion of entropy can be understood as a relative entropy and can also be used to estimate the initial entropy density in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. The key quantity used to calculate this entropy is the nuclear unintegrated gluon distribution (nUGD), which provides a transverse momentum probability density. In the numerical analysis, both the geometric scaling phenomenon and the Glauber-Gribov approach have been used to evaluate realistic models for the nUGD. It is shown that the normalization procedure and the geometric scaling property make the dynamical entropy almost independent of the nucleus mass number $A$. Results are presented for the dynamical entropy density, $dS_D/dy$, in terms of the rapidity.
