Correlations and Kappa Distributions: Numerical Experiment and Physical Understanding

Kappa distributions, their statistical framework, and their thermodynamic origin describe systems with correlations among their particle energies, residing in stationary states out of classical thermal equilibrium/space plasmas, from solar wind to the outer heliosphere, are such systems. We show how...
