A nonextensive statistical model of multiple particle breakage

Statistical Mechanics 2014-12-04 v1

Abstract

A time-dependent statistical description of multiple particle breakage is presented. The approach combines the Tsallis non-extensive entropy with a fractal kinetic equation for the time variation of the number of fragments. The obtained fragment size distribution function is tested by fitting some experimental reports.
