Boltzmann–Poisson Theory of Nonthermal Self-gravitating Gases, Cold Dark Matter, and Solar Atmosphere

Space and astrophysical plasmas or gases can reach various states of thermal or nonthermal quasi-equilibrium, depending on the collisional age of the observed system. Widely observed in space plasmas, the Kappa (or $\kappa $ —power-law) velocity distribution (KVD) is eloquent evidence of nonthermal...
