Relativistic Nonextensive Thermodynamics

Abstract

Starting from the basic prescriptions of the Tsallis' nonextensive thermostatistics, i.e. generalized entropy and normalized q-expectation values, we study the relativistic nonextensive thermodynamics and derive a Boltzmann transport equation that implies the validity of the H-theorem where a local nonextensive four-entropy density is considered. Macroscopic thermodynamic functions and the equation of state for a perfect gas are derived at the equilibrium.
