The Tsallis statistical distribution in a completely open system

We derive the statistical distributions, partition functions and thermodynamic formulas for a completely open system on the basis of Tsallis entropy. These results are derived for two types of constraints, using the method of maximum entropy. ► We prove that an extensive or intensive quantity is not...

Zusammenfassung:We derive the statistical distributions, partition functions and thermodynamic formulas for a completely open system on the basis of Tsallis entropy. These results are derived for two types of constraints, using the method of maximum entropy. ► We prove that an extensive or intensive quantity is not pure in a long-range interacting system. ► The “phase rule” of extensive statistical mechanics therefore does not hold. ► Partition functions are not restricted by the so-called intensive quantities. ► We deduce the statistical distribution of a completely open system and formulas for its thermodynamical quantities. ► The results are not limited to small systems.
