On the Cut-Off Prescriptions Associated with Power-Law Generalized Thermostatistics

We revisit the cut-off prescriptions which are needed in order to specify completely the form of Tsallis' maximum entropy distributions. For values of the Tsallis entropic parameter $q>1$ we advance an alternative cut-off prescription and discuss some of its basic mathematical properties. As an illustration of the new cut-off prescription we consider in some detail the $q$-generalized quantum distributions which have recently been shown to reproduce various experimental results related to high $T_c$ superconductors.

Kappa-deformed Statistics and the Formation of a Quark-Gluon Plasma

The effect of the non-extensive form of statistical mechanics proposed by Tsallis on the formation of a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) has been recently investigated in ref. \cite{1}. The results show that for small deviations ($\approx 10%$) from Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistics in the QGP phase, the critical temperature for the formation of a QGP does not change substantially for a large variation of the chemical potential. In the present effort we use the extensive $κ$-deformed statistical mechanics constructed by Kaniadakis to represent the constituents of the QGP and compare the results with ref. [1].

Generalized Statistics and the Formation a Quark-Gluon Plasma

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of a non-extensive form of statistical mechanics proposed by Tsallis on the formation of a quark-gluon plasma (QGP). We suggest to account for the effects of the dominant part of the {\itshape long-range} interactions among the constituents in the QGP by a change in the statistics of the system in this phase, and we study the relevance of this statistics for the phase transition. The results show that small deviations ($\approx 10%$) from Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics in the QGP produce a noticeable change in the phase diagram, which can, in principle, be tested experimentally.
