Superstatistics, escort distributions, and applications

Abstract

Superpositions of different statistics on different time or spatial scales (in short, superstatistics) can naturally lead to an effective description by nonextensive statistical mechanics. We first discuss the role of escort distributions within the superstatistical framework, and then briefly describe recent physical applications of this concept to turbulent and pattern forming systems.
