Superstatistics [C. Beck and E.G.D. Cohen, Physica A 322, 267 (2003)] is a formalism aimed at describing statistical properties of a generic extensive quantity E in complex out-of-equilibrium systems in terms of a superposition of equilibrium canonical distributions weighted by a function P(beta) of the intensive thermodynamic quantity beta conjugate to E. It is commonly assumed that P(beta) is determined by the spatiotemporal dynamics of the system under consideration. In this work we show by examples that, in some cases fulfilling all the conditions for the superstatistics formalism to be applicable, P(beta) is actually affected also by the way the measurement of E is performed, and thus is not an intrinsic property of the system.

We consider two different proposals to generate a time series with the same non-Poisson distribution of waiting times, to which we refer to as renewal and modulation. We show that, in spite of the apparent statistical equivalence, the two time series generate different physical effects. Renewal generates aging and anomalous scaling, while modulation yields no aging and either ordinary or anomalous diffusion, according to the prescription used for its generation. We argue, in fact, that the physical realization of modulation involves critical events, responsible for scaling. In conclusion, modulation rather than ruling out the action of critical events, sets the challenge for their identification.
Labour productivity distribution (dispersion) is studied both theoretically and empirically. Superstatistics is presented as a natural theoretical framework for productivity. The demand index $kappa$ is proposed within this framework as a new busines s index. Japanese productivity data covering small-to-medium to large firms from 1996 to 2006 is analyzed and the power-law for both firms and workers is established. The demand index $kappa$ is evaluated in the manufacturing sector. A new discovery is reported for the nonmanufacturing (service) sector, which calls for expansion of the superstatistics framework to negative temperature range.
Generalized superstatistics, i.e., a statistics of superstatistics, is proposed. A generalized superstatistical system comprises a set of superstatistical subsystems and represents a generalized hyperensemble. There exists a random control parameter that determines both the density of energy states and the distribution of the intensive parameter for each superstatistical subsystem, thereby forming the third, upper level of dynamics. Generalized superstatistics can be used for nonstationary nonequilibrium systems. The system in which a supercritical multitype age-dependent branching process takes place is an example of a nonstationary generalized superstatistical system. The theory is applied to pair production in a neutron star magnetosphere.
Fluctuations of energy and heat are investigated during the relaxation following the instantaneous temperature quench of an extended system. Results are obtained analytically for the Gaussian model and for the large $N$ model quenched below the criti cal temperature $T_C$. The main finding is that fluctuations exceeding a critical threshold do condense. Though driven by a mechanism similar to that of Bose-Einstein condensation, this phenomenon is an out-of-equilibrium feature produced by the breaking of energy equipartition occurring in the transient regime. The dynamical nature of the transition is illustrated by phase diagrams extending in the time direction.
This note derives the various forms of entropy of systems subject to Olbert distributions (generalized Lorentzian probability distributions known as $kappa$-distributions) which are frequently observed particularly in high temperature plasmas. The ge neral expression of the partition function in such systems is given as well in a form similar to the Boltzmann-Gibbs probability distribution, including a possible exponential high energy truncation. We find the representation of the mean energy as function of probability, and provide the implicit form of Olbert (Lorentzian) entropy as well as its high temperature limit. The relation to phase space density of states is obtained. We then find the entropy as function of probability, an expression which is fundamental to statistical mechanics and here to its Olbertian version. Lorentzian systems through internal collective interactions cause correlations which add to the entropy. Fermi systems do not obey Olbert statistics, while Bose systems might at temperatures sufficiently far from zero.
