More on the four-parameter kappa distribution

Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, 2001
The generalized extreme-value has been the distribution of choice for modeling available maxima (or minima) data since theory has shown it to be the limiting form of the distribution of extremes. However, fits to finite samples are not always adequate.

Debye length in a kappa-distribution plasma

Journal of Plasma Physics, 1996
The Debye length, the characteristic shielding distance in a plasma, is, when the electrons and ions have Maxwellian velocity distributions, determined by the ratio of the temperatures of these components, to the electron (or ion) number density. Plasmas encountered in space, however, commonly exhibit non-Maxwellian velocity distributions, where the ...

KAPPA DISTRIBUTIONS AND FEATURES OF MAGNETOSPHERIC DYNAMICS

2018
Electron and ion distribution functions in the magnetosphere of the Earth in many cases can be described by kappa distributions. Such distributions have a Maxwellian core and a power law spectrum at high energies. Kappa distributions are formed due to relaxation of nonequilibrium distribution functions to the Maxwellian distributions in the conditions ...

Theoretical aspects of Hamiltonian kappa distributions

Physica Scripta, 2019
Abstract The paper examines the formalism of phase-space kappa distribution of particle Hamiltonian in space and other plasmas that reside in stationary states out of the classical thermal equilibrium. Plasmas in the classical thermal equilibrium have their particle velocities described by Maxwell–Boltzmann distributions, in contrast ...
