ON THE SIMPLIFICATION OF STATISTICAL MECHANICS FOR SPACE PLASMAS

On the Simplification of Statistical Mechanics for Space Plasmas

Space plasmas are frequently described by kappa distributions.Non-extensive statistical mechanics involves the maximization of the Tsallis entropic form under the constraints of canonical ensemble, considering also a dyadic formalism between the ordinary and escort probability distributions.This 402 paper addresses the statistical origin of kappa d
