We consider nonequilibrium systems with complex dynamics in stationary states with large fluctuations of intensive quantities (e.g. the temperature, chemical potential, or energy dissipation) on long time scales. Depending on the…

In this paper we elaborate on the recently proposed superstatistics formalism [C. Beck and E.G.D. Cohen, Physica A 322, 267 (2003)], used to interpret unconventional statistics. Their interpretation is that unconventional statistics in…

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…
We give a simple probabilistic description of a transition between two states which leads to a generalized escort distribution. When the parameter of the distribution varies, it defines a parametric curve that we call an escort-path. The…
