New comments on "Possible divergences in Tsallis' thermostatistics''
Abstract
In a recent letter (EPL, 104 (2013) 60003; see also arXiv:1309.5645), Plastino and Rocca suggest that the divergences inherent to the formulation of nonextensive statistical mechanics can be eliminated via the use of q-Laplace transformation which is illustrated for the case of a kinetic Hamiltonian system, the harmonic oscillator. The suggested new formulation raises questions which are discussed in the present comment.
