Lorentzian Entropies and Olbert's κ - Distribution
This note derives the various forms of entropy of a systems subject to Olbert distributions (generalized Lorentzian probability distributions known as κ-distributions), which are frequently observed, particularly in high-temperature plasmas. The general expression of the partition function in such s...
