It is verified that the total Tsallis entropy of the two systems cannot decrease after the contact of the systems. We derived an inequality for the change of Tsallis entropy in such an example, which leads to a generalization of the principle of entropy increase in the framework of nonextensive statistical mechanics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-02-24T03:08:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "entropy increase", "total tsallis entropy", "considering tow systems", "thermal equilibrium", "temperatures" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Bulletin of the Astronomical Society of India", "year": 2007, "month": "Dec", "volume": 35, "pages": 691 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007BASI...35..691D" } } }
