Kaniadakis statistics and the quantum H-theorem

A proof of the quantum H-theorem in the context of Kaniadakis' entropy concept SκQ and a generalization of stosszahlansatz are presented, showing that there exists a quantum version of the second law of thermodynamics consistent with the Kaniadakis statistics. It is also shown that the marginal...

Zusammenfassung:A proof of the quantum H-theorem in the context of Kaniadakis' entropy concept SκQ and a generalization of stosszahlansatz are presented, showing that there exists a quantum version of the second law of thermodynamics consistent with the Kaniadakis statistics. It is also shown that the marginal equilibrium states are described by quantum κ-power law extensions of the Fermi–Dirac and Bose–Einstein distributions.
