Non-Extensive Approach to Quark Matter

Tamas S. Biro, Gabor Purcsel, Karoly Urmossy

Published 2008-12-11, updated 2008-12-15Version 2

We review the idea of generating non-extensive stationary distributions based on abstract composition rules for the subsystem energies, in particular the relativistic generalized Boltzmann equation method. The thermodynamical behavior of such systems is investigated and hadron spectra stemming from relativistic heavy ion collisions are calculated by assuming quark coalescence.

Comments: Review prepared for The European Physical Journal A - Hadrons and Nuclei, as part of a review block about applications of non-extensive thermodynamics in high-energy phenomena
