Introducing the generalized, non-extensive statistics proposed by Tsallis[1988], into the standard s-wave pairing BCS theory of superconductivity in 2D yields a reasonable description of many of the main properties of high temperature…
We construct classes of stochastic differential equations with fluctuating friction forces that generate a dynamics correctly described by Tsallis statistics and nonextensive statistical mechanics. These systems generalize the way in which…
We present a thermodynamic theory for a generic population of $M$ individuals distributed into $N$ groups (clusters). We construct the ensemble of all distributions with fixed $M$ and $N$, introduce a selection functional that embodies the…
Superstatistics (Physica A 322, 267-275, 2003) is a formalism that attempts to explain the presence of distributions other than the Boltzmann-Gibbs distributions in Nature, typically power-law behavior, for systems out of equilibrium such…
We derive analogues of the Jarzynski equality and Crooks relation to characterise the nonequilibrium work associated with changes in the spring constant of an overdamped oscillator in a quadratically varying spatial temperature profile. The…
A quantum mechanical generalization of superstatistics is presented here based on the positive operator valued measure transformation property of the system density matrix. This procedure reveals that the origin of the fluctuating factors…
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the double-differential $p_T$ distributions of charged particles in twelve distinct pseudorapidity regions of equal width in $pp$ collisions at center-of-mass energies of 0.9, 2.36, and 7 TeV.…
We show that the stochastic interpretation of Tsallis' thermostatistics given recently by Beck [Phys. Rev. Lett {\bf 87}, 180601 (2001)] leads naturally to a multi-parameter generalization. The resulting class of distributions is able to…
Fundamental inconsistencies of superstatistics are highlighted. There is no such thing as a superposition of Boltzmann factors; what is actually derived is a generating function and not a normalizable probability density. The beta density…
We applied the Tsallis statistics with the conventional expectation value to a system of free particles, adopting the equilibrium temperature which is often called the physical temperature. The entropic parameter $q$ in the Tsallis…
By using the maximum entropy principle with Tsallis entropy we obtain a fragment size distribution function which undergoes a transition to scaling. This distribution function reduces to those obtained by other authors using Shannon…
We calculate the fluctuation of the energy of a system in Tsallis statistics following the finite heat bath canonical ensemble approach. We obtain this fluctuation as the second derivative of the logarithm of the partition function plus an…

In the present paper the conditions for the validity of the Tsallis' Statistics are analyzed. The same has been done following the analogy with the traditional case: starting from the microcanonical description of the systems and taking…

To describe the nonequilibrium states of a system we introduce a new thermodynamic parameter - the lifetime (the first passage time) of a system. The statistical distributions that can be obtained out of the mesoscopic description…
In recent years the Tsallis statistics is gaining popularity in describing charged particle produc- tion and their properties, in particular pT spectra and the multiplicities in high energy particle collisions. Motivated by its success, an…
The current form of Tsallis distribution for a Hamiltonian system with an arbitrary potential is found to represent a simple isothermal situation. In this letter, the q-exponential of a sum can be applied as the product of the q-exponential…
It is shown that the distribution derived from the principle of maximum Tsallis entropy is a superposable Levy-type distribution. Concomitantly, the leading order correction to the limit distribution is also deduced. This demonstration…
