Broken Z2 symmetries and fluctuations in statistical mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Scr. 86, 058504 (2012), 2012
An analogy is developed between the breaking of space-inversion symmetry in equilibrium statistical mechanics and the breaking of time-reversal symmetry in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. In this way, similar relationships characterizing fluctuations are obtained in both contexts.

Heat and Entropy in nonextensive thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The concepts of quantity of heat and work are deduced in the non-extensive statistical mechanics context, following steps in parallel to those employed in the extensive statistical mechanics.

Some Open Points in Nonextensive Statistical Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We present and discuss a list of some interesting points that are currently open in nonextensive statistical mechanics. Their analytical, numerical, experimental or observational advancement would naturally be very welcome.

Generalized statistical mechanics for superstatistical systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Mesoscopic systems in a slowly fluctuating environment are often well described by superstatistical models. We develop a generalized statistical mechanics formalism for superstatistical systems, by mapping the superstatistical complex system onto a system of ordinary statistical mechanics with modified energy levels.
