Nonextensive statistical effects in protoneutron stars
We investigate the bulk properties of protoneutron stars in the framework of
a relativistic mean field theory based on nonextensive statistical mechanics,
characterized by power-law quantum distributions. We study the relevance of
nonextensive statistical effects on the beta-stable equation of state at fixed
entropy per baryon, in presence and in absence of trapped neutrinos, for
nucleonic and hyperonic matter. We show that nonextensive statistical effects
could play a crucial role in the structure and in the evolution of the
protoneutron stars also for small deviations from the standard Boltzmann-Gibbs
statistics.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
