Abstract

Following Chakrabarti,Chandrasekhar, and Naina [Physica A {\bf 389} (2010) 1571], we attempt a classical relativistic treatment of Verlinde's emergent entropic force conjecture by appealing to a relativistic Hamiltonian in the context of Tsalli's statistics. The ensuing partition function becomes the classical one for small velocities. We show that Tsallis' relativistic (classical) free particle distribution at temperature can generate Newton's gravitational force's {\it distance's dependence}. If we want to repeat the concomitant argument by appealing to Renyi's distribution, the attempt fails and one needs to modify the conjecture.
