Nonextensive statistics of relativistic ideal gas

Abstract

We obtain the specific heat in the third constraint scenario for a canonical ensemble of a nonextensive extreme relativistic ideal gas in a closed form. The canonical ensemble of N particles in D dimensions is well-defined for the choice of the deformation parameter in the range 0 < q < 1 + 1 / DN. For a relativistic ideal gas with particles of arbitrary mass a perturbative scheme in the nonextensivity parameter (1 - q) is developed by employing an infinite product expansion of the q-exponential, and a direct transformation of the internal energy from the second to the third constraint picture. All thermodynamic quantities may be uniformly evaluated to any desired perturbative order.
