Statistical Mechanics of Violent Relaxation in Stellar Systems
We discuss the statistical mechanics of violent relaxation in stellar systems following the pioneering work of Lynden-Bell (1967). The solutions of the gravitational Vlasov-Poisson system develop finer and finer filaments so that a statistical description is appropriate to smooth out the small-scales and describe the “coarse-grained” dynamics. In a coarse-grained sense, the system is expected t...
متن کاملGeneralized statistical mechanics of cosmic rays
We consider a generalized statistical mechanics model for the creation process of cosmic rays which takes into account local temperature fluctuations. This model yields Tsallis statistics for the cosmic ray spectrum. It predicts an entropic index q given by q = 11/9 at largest energies (equivalent to a spectral index of α = 5/2), and an effective temperature given by 59TH , where kTH ≈ 180 MeV ...
متن کاملDefect turbulence and generalized statistical mechanics
We present experimental evidence that the motion of point defects in thermal convection patterns in an inclined fluid layer is well described by Tsallis statistics with an entropic index q ≈ 1.5. The dynamical properties of the defects (anomalous diffusion, shape of velocity distributions, power-law decay of correlations) are in good agreement with typical predictions of nonextensive models, ov...
متن کاملGeneralized statistical mechanics for superstatistical systems.
Mesoscopic systems in a slowly fluctuating environment are often well described by superstatistical models. We develop a generalized statistical mechanics formalism for superstatistical systems, by mapping the superstatistical complex system onto a system of ordinary statistical mechanics with modified energy levels. We also briefly review recent examples of applications of the superstatistics ...
