Kappa distributions in the framework of superstatistics

Sergio Davis, Biswajit Bora, Cristian Pavez +1

The kappa distribution of velocities appears routinely in the study of collisionless plasmas present in Earth's magnetosphere, the solar wind among other contexts where particles a…

Kappa distribution from particle correlations in non-equilibrium, steady-state plasmas

Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Avaria, Biswajit Bora +4

Kappa-distributed velocities in plasmas are common in a wide variety of settings, from low-density to high-density plasmas. To date, they have been found mainly in space plasmas, b…

Single-particle velocity distributions of collisionless, steady-state plasmas must follow Superstatistics

Sergio Davis, Gonzalo Avaria, Biswajit Bora +4

The correct modelling of velocity distribution functions for particles in steady-state plasmas is a central element in the study of nuclear fusion and also in the description of sp…
