Inherent correlations between thermodynamics and statistical physics in extensive and nonextensive systems

Introduction to Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics *

In this lecture we briefly review the definition, consequences and applications of an entropy, Sq, which generalizes the usual Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy SBG (S1 = SBG), basis of the usual statistical mechanics, well known to be applicable whenever ergodicity is satisfied at the microscopic dynamical level. Such entropy Sq is based on the notion of q-exponential and presents properties not shared ...

Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics

: metadiscourse in introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics research articles: exploring variation in frequency and type

abstract in written mode of language, metadiscourse markers are used commonly to help writers in general and academic writers in particular to produce coherent and professional texts. the purpose of the present study was to compare introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics articles regarding their use of interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers based on the model pro...

Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics -applications to Nuclear and High Energy Physics *

A variety of phenomena in nuclear and high energy physics seemingly do not satisfy the basic hypothesis for possible stationary states to be of the type covered by Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics. More specifically, the system appears to relax, along time, on macroscopic states which violate the ergodic assumption. Some of these phenomena appear to follow, instead, the prescriptions ...
