Kappa and q Indices: Dependence on the Degrees of Freedom
Entropy, 2015 The kappa distributions, or their equivalent, the q-exponential distributions, are the natural generalization of the classical Boltzmann-Maxwell distributions, applied to the study of the particle populations in collisionless space plasmas.

Equilibrium statistical mechanics of strongly coupled plasmas by numerical simulation [PDF]
, 1977 Numerical experiments using the Monte Carlo method have led to systematic and accurate results for the thermodynamic properties of strongly coupled one-component plasmas and mixtures of two nuclear components.

Electronic structure and statistical mechanics of ionic configurations in hot plasmas
Le Journal de Physique IV, 2000 We give an overview of methods used in the study of electronic structure and statistical mechanics of ionic configurations in hot plasmas. Various methods that can be applied to the statistics of the configurations, starting from the electronic structure

Fingerprints of nonequilibrium stationary distributions in dispersion relations
Scientific Reports, 2021 Distributions different from those predicted by equilibrium statistical mechanics are commonplace in a number of physical situations, such as plasmas and self-gravitating systems.

Glueballs and statistical mechanics of the gluon plasma [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2009 We study a pure gluon plasma in the context of quasiparticle models, where the plasma is considered as an ideal gas of massive bosons. In order to reproduce SU(3) gauge field lattice data within such a framework, we review briefly the necessity to use a temperature-dependent gluon mass which accounts for color interactions between the gluons near $T_ ...

Lorentzian Entropies and Olbert's κ - Distribution
Frontiers in Physics, 2020 This note derives the various forms of entropy of a systems subject to Olbert distributions (generalized Lorentzian probability distributions known as κ-distributions), which are frequently observed, particularly in high-temperature plasmas.

A Statistical Mechanical View of the Determination of the Composition of Multi?Temperature Plasmas [PDF]
Plasma Chemistry and Plasma Processing, 2004 It is important that plasma composition is calculated in a manner consistent with statistical mechanics, particularly since the Boltzmann equation is the basis from which transport coefficients and the fluid‐dynamic equations are derived. It is shown from statistical mechanical considerations based on the Boltzmann equation and the H‐theorem that it is

Particle Interactions and Statistical Mechanics of Plasma
, 2022 Plasma is an ionized gas composed of free electrons, ions, atoms and molecules. The charged particles contained in the plasma environment are associated with self- generated and self-consistent electric and magnetic fields.This paper would cater to explaining the particle interactions in plasma and its corresponding statistical plasma mechanics.
