When the equations that govern the dynamics of a random field are nonlinear, the field can develop with time non-Gaussian statistics even if its initial condition is Gaussian. Here, we provide a general framework for calculating the effect…

In many situations, in all branches of physics, one encounters power-like behavior of some variables which are best described by a Tsallis distribution characterized by a nonextensivity parameter $q$ and scale parameter $T$. However, there…

Maxwell's first derivation of the equilibrium distribution function for a dilute gas is generalized in the spirit of the nonextensive q-statistics proposed by Tsallis. As an application, the q-Doppler broadening of spectral lines due to the…

It is natural important question for us to ask what the nonextensive parameter stands for when Tsallis statistics is applied to the self-gravitating systems. In this paper, some properties of the nonextensive parameter and Tsallis…

It was recently noticed that high-energy scattering processes in QCD have a stochastic nature. An event-by-event scattering amplitude is characterised by a saturation scale which is a random variable. The statistical ensemble of saturation…

In this manuscript we investigate quantum uncertainties in a Tsallis' non additive scenario. To such an end we appeal to q-exponentials, that are the cornerstone of Tsallis' theory. In this respect, it is found that some new mathematics is…

In this work, we explore both the ordinary $q$-Gaussian distribution and a new one defined here, determining both their mean and variance, and we use them to construct solutions of the $q$-deformed diffusion differential equation. This…
