Analytical Calculations of the Quantum Tsallis Thermodynamic Variables

Abstract

In this paper, we provide an account of analytical results related to the Tsallis thermodynamics that have been the subject matter of a lot of studies in the field of high-energy collisions. After reviewing the results for the classical case in the massless limit and for arbitrarily massive classical particles, we compute the quantum thermodynamic variables. For the first time, the analytical formula for the pressure of a Tsallis-like gas of massive bosons has been obtained. The study serves both as a brief review of the knowledge gathered in this area, and as original research that forwards the existing scholarship. The results of the present paper will be important in a plethora of studies in the field of high-energy collisions including the propagation of non-linear waves generated by the traversal of high-energy particles inside the quark-gluon plasma medium showing the features of non-extensivity.
