Non Extensivity in Meteor Showers

Oscar Sotolongo-Costa, R. Gamez, F. Luzon +2

A meteor shower is a luminous phenomenon that takes place by the entry into the Earths atmosphere of a cascade of particles coming from a stream intersected by our planet in its or…

Anomalous diffusion of epicentres

Oscar Sotolongo-Costa, R. Gamez, A. Posadas +1

The classification of earthquakes in main shocks and aftershocks by a method recently proposed by M. Baiesi and M. Paczuski allows to the generation of a complex network composed o…

Tsallis Entropy: A Non-Extensive Frequency-Magnitude Distribution of Earthquakes

Oscar Sotolongo-Costa, Antonio Posadas

By using the maximum entropy principle, with Tsallis entropy, we obtain an explicit dependence for energy distribution of earthquakes. This function describes very well the observa…

Levy Flights and Earthquakes

O. Sotolongo-Costa, J. C. Antoranz, A. Posadas +2

Levy flights representation is proposed to describe earthquake characteristics like the distribution of waiting times and position of hypocenters in a seismic region. Over 7500 mic…

Continuous Time Random Walks and South Spain Seismic Series

A. Posadas, J. Morales, F. Vidal +2

Levy flights were introduced through the mathematical research of the algebra or random variables with infinite moments. Mandelbrot recognized that the Levy flight prescription had…
