Abstract

We deal with the power-law q-distribution functions, so-called q-exponentials in nonextensive statistics. The system considered is a many-body Hamiltonian system with arbitrary interacting potentials. We find that the usual form of power-law q-distribution function employed in nonextensive statistics for the system may be not to stand by the probabilistically independent postulate and it only represents a dynamical isothermal situation. The probabilistically independent postulate is validated by the nonextensivity (or pseudoadditivity) in nonextensive statistics and thus the usual forms of power-law q-distribution function have to be modified. In this letter, we present a new power-law q-distribution based on the probabilistically independent postulate, which can represent nonequilibrium stationary state of the system away from equilibrium and with the nonextensive energy.
