We look at multiparticle production processes from the nonextensive point of view. Nonextensivity means here the systematic deviations in exponential formulas provided by the usual statistical approach for description of some observables…
Quasi-power law ensembles are discussed from the perspective of nonextensive Tsallis distributions characterized by a nonextensive parameter $q$. A number of possible sources of such distributions are presented in more detail. It is further…
In the case of a system with an unbounded hamiltonian the entropic index q of non-extensive thermodynamics has an upperbound q_c>1 beyond which the formalism becomes meaningless. The expression 1/(q_c-1) is the dimension of the state space…
We study sporadic randomness by means of a non-extensive form of Lyapunov coefficient. We recover from a different perspective the same conclusion as that of an earlier work, namely, that the ordinary Pesin theorem applies (P.Gaspard and…
This paper presents a model of van der Waals forces in the framework of diffusion-convection equations. The model consists of a nonlinear and degenerated diffusion-convection equation, which furthermore can be considered as a model for slow…

We argue that contrary to recent suggestions, non-extensive statistical mechanics has no relevance for inhomogeneous systems of particles interacting by short-range potentials. We show that these systems are perfectly well described by the…
A unified presentation of the perturbation and variational methods for the generalized statistical mechanics based on Tsallis entropy is given here. In the case of the variational method, the Bogoliubov inequality is generalized in a very…
In order to study as a whole a wide part of entropy measures, we introduce a two-parameter non-extensive entropic form with respect to the $h$-derivative, which generalizes the conventional Newton--Leibniz calculus. This new entropy,…

The framework of non-extensive statistical mechanics, proposed by Tsallis, has been used to describe a variety of systems. The non-extensive statistical mechanics is usually introduced in a formal way, using the maximization of entropy. In…
This work presents a pedagogical derivation of the thermodynamics of a van der Waals fluid by explicitly incorporating pairwise molecular interactions and the finite size of particles into the statistical-mechanical description. Starting…
We describe some recent applications of Tsallis statistics in fully developed hydrodynamic turbulence and high energy physics. For many of these applications nonextensive properties arise from spatial fluctuations of the temperature or the…
In this work we generalize the models for nonlinear waves in a gas--liquid mixture taking into account an interphase heat transfer, a surface tension and a weak liquid compressibility simultaneously at the derivation of the equations for…
A generalized definition of average, termed the q-average, is widely employed in the field of nonextensive statistical mechanics. Recently, it has however been pointed out that such an average value may behave unphysical under specific…
Integral equation of pure liquids, combined with a new "scaling approximation" based on a corresponding states treatment of pair correlation functions, is used to evaluate approximate structure factors for colloidal fluids constituted of…
After a brief review of the present status of nonextensive statistical mechanics, we present a conjectural scenario where mixing (characterized by the entropic index $q_{mix} \le 1$) and equilibration (characterized by the entropic index…
Effects of quantum statistics for nuclear matter equation of state are analyzed in terms of the recently proposed quantum van der Waals model. The system pressure is expanded over a small parameter $\delta \propto…
Self-gravitating systems are generally thought to behavior non-extensively due to the long-range nature of gravitational forces. We obtain a relation between the nonextensive parameter q of Tsallis statistics, the temperature gradient and…
Within the Tsallis thermodynamics' framework, and using scaling properties of the entropy, we derive a generalization of the Gibbs-Duhem equation. The analysis suggests a transformation of variables that allows standard thermodynamics to be…
