On compressive radial tidal forces
Marco Masi
Radial tidal forces can be compressive instead of disruptive, a possibility that is frequently overlooked in high level physics courses. For example, radial tidal compression can e…
On the extended Kolmogorov-Nagumo information-entropy theory, the q -> 1/q duality and its possible implications for a non-extensive two dimensional Ising model
Marco Masi
The aim of this paper is to investigate the q -> 1/q duality in an information-entropy theory of all q-generalized entropy functionals (Tsallis, Renyi and Sharma-Mittal measures) i…
Generalized information-entropy measures and Fisher information
Marco Masi
We show how Fisher's information already known particular character as the fundamental information geometric object which plays the role of a metric tensor for a statistical differ…
On the parameter spectrum of generalized information-entropy measures with no cut-off prescriptions
M. Masi
After studying some properties of the generalized exponential and logarithmic function, in particular investigating the domain where the first maintains itself real and positive, a…
A step beyond Tsallis and Renyi entropies
Marco Masi
Tsallis and Rényi entropy measures are two possible different generalizations of the Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy (or Shannon's information) but are not generalizations of each others.…
Dynamical effects of the radial galactic tide on an Oort cloud of comets for stars with different masses and varying distances from the galactic center
Marco Masi
We show that the effects of radial galactic tides alone can change the dynamics of an Oort cloud of comets around a star in a highly sensitive manner. The Oort cloud dynamics depen…
