چکیده
It is shown that the comment by Costa and Meneses [1] did not point any technical or conceptual flaw in our paper titled " Conservative Force Fields in the application of the nonextensive distribution to the historical problem of the unbounded isothermal atmosphere under constant gravity is theoretically correct. It should be stressed that our solution is somewhat connected with a similar solution to a problem appearing in the astrophysical domain, namely, the so-called singular isothermal sphere. Actually, both problems are solved

Comment on Conservative force fields in nonextensive kinetic theory
We discuss an improper application of the Maxwell-Boltzmann theory to a very unrealistic model. The authors of the original paper claim that a generalized theory would solve a problem that really does not exists. This Comment was submited to Physica A and was not accepted as it is.
متن کاملForce Fields in Nonextensive Kinetic Theory
We investigate the nonextensive q-distribution function for a gas in the presence of an external field of force possessing a potential U (r). In the case of a dilute gas, we show that the power law distribution including the potential energy factor term can rigorously be deduced based on kinetic theoretical arguments. This result is significant as a preliminary to the discussion of long range i...

This is the reply to a comment by Andreas Aste on a previous article of mine in Can.J.Phys. The counter-arguments used by Aste utilize a mathematical limit without physical meaning. We still contend that in QCD, the particles “gluons” and “quarks” are merely artifacts of an approximation method (the perturbative expansion) and are simply absent in the exact theory. The critique of my previous a...

The interaction energy and force between widely separated strings is analyzed in a field theory having applications to superconducting cosmic strings, the SO(5) model of high-temperature superconductivity, and solitons in nonlinear optics. The field theory has two order parameters, one of which is broken in the vacuum (giving rise to strings), the other of which is unbroken in the vacuum but wh...

The density profiles and other quantities of physical interest for spherically symmetric systems are computed by assuming that a collisionless stellar gas may relax to the non-Gaussian power law distribution suggested by the nonex-tensive kinetic theory. There are two different classes of solutions. The first class behaves like a subset of the polytropic Lane-Emden spheres, whereas the second o...
