Generalized Statistics and Solar Neutrinos
Abstract
The generalized Tsallis statistics produces a distribution function appropriate to describe the interior solar plasma, thought as a stellar polytrope, showing a tail depleted respect to the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution and reduces to zero at energies greater than about 20 \, k_B T. The Tsallis statistics can theoretically support the distribution suggested in the past by Clayton and collaborators, which shows also a depleted tail, to explain the solar neutrino counting rate.
