چکیده

We discuss the basic transport phenomena in gases and plasmas obeying the q-nonextensive velocity distribution (power-law). Analytical expressions for the thermal conductivity (Kq) and viscosity (ηq) are derived by solving the Boltzmann equation in the relaxation-time approximation. The available experimental results to the ratio Kq/ηq constrains the q-parameter on the interval 0.74 ≤ q ≤ 1. In the extensive limiting case, the standard transport coefficients based on the local Gaussian distribution are recovered, and due to a surprising cancellation, the electric conductivity of a neutral plasma is not modified. 05.45.+b; 05.20.-y; 05.90.+m Typeset using REVTEX [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] 1

A Nonextensive Electrolyte UNIQUAC Model for Prediction of Mean Activity Coefficients of Binary Electrolyte Solutions

In this work, an electrolyte-UNIQUAC model was developed by replacement of Boltzmann weight binary interaction parameters by the nonextensive Tsallis weight. A summation of the long-range electrostatic term (Debye-Huckel equation) and a short-range interaction term were considered in the calculation of thermodynamic properties. A framework proposed by Chen and co-workers was employed for the de...

Dissipative or Just Nonextensive Hydrodynamics? -nonextensive/dissipative Correspondence

Recently there is renewed interest in dissipative hydrodynamical models [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] prompted by the success of perfect hydrodynamics in describing RHIC data [6] and by recent calculations of transport coefficients of strongly interacting quark-gluon system using the AdS/CFT correspondence [7]. The question is whether dissipative hydrodynamics (d-hydrodynamics) is really needed and how it sh...

Interacting Many-Investor Models, Opinion Formation and Price Formation with Non-extensive Statistics

We seek to utilize the nonextensive statistics to the microscopic modeling of the interacting many-investor dynamics that drive the price changes in a market. The statistics of price changes are known to be fit well by the Students-T and power-law distributions of the nonextensive statistics. We therefore derive models of interacting investors that are based on the nonextensive statistics and w...

Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac distributions in nonextensive quantum statistics: exact and interpolation approaches.

Generalized Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac distributions in nonextensive quantum statistics have been discussed by the maximum-entropy method (MEM) with the optimum Lagrange multiplier based on the exact integral representation [A. K. Rajagopal, R. S. Mendes, and E. K. Lenzi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 3907 (1998)]. It has been shown that the (q-1) expansion in the exact approach agrees with the resul...

6 M ay 2 00 3 Power law distribution of Rényi entropy for equilibrium systems having nonadditive energy

Using Rényi entropy, an alternative thermo-statistics to Tsallis one for nonextensive systems at equilibrium is discussed. We show that it is possible to have the q-exponential distribution function for equilibrium nonextensive systems having nonadditive energy but additive entropy. It is also shown that additive energy makes no sense and is not suitable for interacting systems described by non...
