Abstract
In this Letter, we determine the κ-distribution function for a gas in the presence of an external field of force described by a potential U ( r ) . In the case of a dilute gas, we show that the κ-power law distribution including the potential energy factor term can rigorously be deduced in the framework of kinetic theory with basis on the Vlasov equation. Such a result is significant as a preliminary to the discussion on the role of long range interactions in the Kaniadakis thermostatistics and the underlying kinetic theory.
