Abstract
The present paper is devoted to the relativistic statistical theory, introduced in Phys. Rev. E {\bf 66} (2002) 056125 and Phys. Rev. E {\bf 72} (2005) 036108, predicting the particle distribution function with , and . This, experimentally observed, relativistic distribution, at low energies behaves as the exponential, Maxwell-Boltzmann classical distribution, while at high energies presents power law tails. Here, we obtain the evolution equation, conducting asymptotically to the above distribution, by using a new deductive procedure, starting from the relativistic BBGKY hierarchy and by employing the relativistic molecular chaos hypothesis.
