The kappa distribution of velocities appears routinely in the study of collisionless plasmas present in Earth's magnetosphere, the solar wind among other contexts where particles are unable to reach thermal equilibrium. Originally justified…
We discuss the possibility of implementing axiomatic nonextensive statistics, where it is conjectured that the phase-space volume determines the (non)extensive entropy, on the particle production at NICA energies. Both Boltzmann-Gibbs and…
Uniform random numbers, not Gaussian random numbers, should have been used with Standard Solar Models to estimate the effect on the neutrino flux of uncertainties in input data. The observed discrepancy is therefore probably quite smaller…
In this letter we discuss the Non-gaussian statistics considering two aspects. In the first, we show that the Maxwell's first derivation of the stationary distribution function for a dilute gas can be extended in the context of Kaniadakis…
High energy infers high velocity and high velocity is a concept of special relativity. The Maxwellian velocity distribution is corrected to be consistent with special relativity. The corrected distribution reduces to the Maxwellian…
The non-extensive canonical ensemble theory is reconsidered with the method of Lagrange multipliers by maximizing Tsallis entropy, with the constraint that the normalized term of Tsallis' $q-$average of physical quantities, the sum $\sum…
We show that finite systems whose Hamiltonians obey a generalized homogeneity relation rigorously follow the nonextensive thermostatistics of Tsallis. In the thermodynamical limit, however, our results indicate that the Boltzmann-Gibbs…
The necessary information for specifying a complex system may not be completely accessible to us, i.e., to mathematical treatments. This is not to be confounded with the incompleteness of our knowledge about whatever systems or nature,…
Relativistic particle production often requires the use of Tsallis statistics to account for the apparently power-like behavior of transverse momenta observed in the data even at a few GeV/c. In such an approach this behavior is attributed…
We present an embedding of the Tsallis entropy into the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group, in order to understand the meaning of generalized independence as encoded in the Tsallis entropy composition property. We infer that the Tsallis entropy…
We introduce a fractional generalization of Tsallis entropy by acting with a $q$-Caputo operator on the generating family $\sum_i p_i^{\,x}$ evaluated at $x=1$. Concretely, we define $S_{q}^{\alpha}$ through the $q$-Caputo differintegral of…
The symmetry between quarks and leptons suggests that neutrinos should have mass. As embodied in the grand unified theory SO(10) this yields masses that can only be detected by neutrino oscillations. Such oscillations could be very…
Thermal Doppler broadening of spectral profiles for particle populations in the absence or presence of potential fields are described by kappa distributions. The kappa distribution provides a replacement for the Maxwell-Boltzmann…
This article discusses the possible variation of the solar neutrino flux over time in the records of Super-Kamiokande-I and the relation to non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and the entropic pathway model. The scaling behavior of the…
In the present work, we have found that the phenomenological Tsallis distribution (which nowadays is largely used to describe the transverse momentum distributions of hadrons measured in $pp$ collisions at high energies) is consistent with…
An ion-beam compressed by an external electric force is characterized by a unique non-equilibrium distribution function. This is a special case of Tsallis distribution with entropy index q=2, which allows the system to possess appreciably…
We study the statistical properties of the combined emission of a population of discrete sources (e.g. X-ray emission of a galaxy due to its X-ray binaries population). Namely, we consider the dependence of their total luminosity…
To know the statistical distribution of a variable is an important problem in management of resources. Distributions of the power law type are observed in many real systems. However power law distributions have an infinite variance and thus…
We present an argument justifying the origin of the escort distributions used in calculations involving the Tsallis entropy. We rely on an induced hyperbolic Riemannian metric reflecting the generalized composition property of the Tsallis…
The problem of temperature in nonextensive statistical mechanics is studied. Considering the first law of thermodynamics and a "quasi-reversible process", it is shown that the Tsallis entropy becomes the Clausius entropy if the inverse of…
