Ideal gas provides q-entropy
Abstract
A mathematical procedure is suggested to obtain deformed entropy formulas of type K(SK) = sumi Pi K(-ln Pi), by requiring zero mutual K(SK)-information between a finite subsystem and a finite reservoir. The use of this method is first demonstrated on the ideal gas equation of state with finite constant heat capacity, C, where it delivers the Renyi and Tsallis formulas. A novel interpretation of the qstar = 2-q duality arises from the comparison of canonical subsystem and total microcanonical partition approaches. Finally a new, generalized deformed entropy formula is constructed for the linear relation C(S) = C0 + C1 S.
