Tsallis distribution from minimally selected order statistics
arXiv:0708.2660 · doi:10.1063/1.2828762
Abstract
We demonstrate that selection of the minimal value of ordered variables leads in a natural way to its distribution being given by the Tsallis distribution, the same as that resulting from Tsallis nonextensive statistics. The possible application of this result to the multiparticle production processes is indicated.
