Physical Correlations Lead to Kappa Distributions
Abstract The recently developed concept of “entropic defect” is important for understanding the foundations of thermodynamics in space plasma physics, and more generally for systems with physical correlations among their particles. Using this concept, this paper derives the basic formulation of the distribution function of velocities (or

Comparative analysis on the structural features of the 5' flanking region of kappa-casein genes from six different species [PDF]
Kappa-casein plays an essential role in the formation, stabilisation and aggregation of milk micelles. Control of kappa-casein expression reflects this essential role, although an understanding of the mechanisms involved lags behind that of the other ...

Map of suprathermal onto nonextensive parameters describing Langmuir waves
We propose a polytropic-like index that depends on the concentration and number of degrees of freedom of a gas of charged particles following a nonextensive distribution.

Bayesian Inference in Extremes Using the Four-Parameter Kappa Distribution
Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of the four-parameter kappa distribution (K4D) is known to be occasionally unstable for small sample sizes and to be very sensitive to outliers.

Kappa distribution from particle correlations in nonequilibrium, steady-state plasmas
Indexación: Scopus.Kappa-distributed velocities in plasmas are common in a wide variety of settings, from low-density to high-density plasmas. To date, they have been found mainly in space plasmas, but are recently being considered also in the modeling ...

Relativistic Kappa Distribution Effects on Dust Charging in Critical Areas of Dusty Plasma [PDF]
The process of dust grain charging with the help the orbit limited motion theory (OLM) and a kinetic model in the relativistic regime considers in the critical areas of the dust grain density when it is very low and vice versa.

Statistics of Binary Exchange of Energy or Money
Why does the Maxwell-Boltzmann energy distribution for an ideal classical gas have an exponentially thin tail at high energies, while the Kaniadakis distribution for a relativistic gas has a power-law fat tail?

Extended Kappa Distribution in the Presence of Censored Data
In this study, we introduce a new extension of three-parameter Kappa distribution using the Topp-Leone family of distributions, called Topp-Leone Kappa distribution which offers distribution with more flexible and applicable study of the highly-skewed ...

Loading a relativistic Kappa distribution in particle simulations
A procedure for loading particle velocities from a relativistic kappa distribution in particle-in-cell and Monte Carlo simulations is presented. It is based on the rejection method and the beta prime distribution. The rejection part extends earlier method for the Maxwell–Jüttner distribution, and then the acceptance rate reaches ≳95%.
