Extensive composable entropy for the analysis of cosmological data by Constantino Tsallis, Henrik Jeldtoft Jensen

“…The Boltzmann-Gibbs-based Bekenstein-Hawking entropy SBH∝A/lP2 (A≡ area; lP≡ Planck length) systematically plays a crucial theoretical role although it has a serious drawback, namely that it violates the thermodynamic extensivity of spatially-three-dimensional systems. Still, its intriguing area dependence points out the relevance of considering the form W(N)∼μNγ(μ>1;γ>0), W and N respectively being the total number of microscopic possibilities and the number of components; γ=1 corresponds to standard Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics. …”
