Generalized Statistics and High Tc Superconductivity

Abstract

Introducing the generalized, non-extensive statistics proposed by Tsallis[1988], into the standard s-wave pairing BCS theory of superconductivity in 2D yields a reasonable description of many of the main properties of high temperature superconductors, provided some allowance is made for non-phonon mediated interactions.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figure
