Abstract
The energy distribution and the energy fluctuation in the Tsallis canonical ensemble are studied with the OLM formalism but following a new way. The resulting formula for the energy fluctuation is not the same as that in previous work [L.Y. Liu, J.L. Du, Physica A 387 (2008) 5417]. In discussing the application of an ideal gas, we find that the energy fluctuation can not be negligible in the thermodynamic limit, showing the ensemble nonequivalence for this case in Tsallis statistics. We investigate the energy fluctuation with a Tsallis generalized canonical distribution studied by Plastino and Plastino [A.R. Plastino, A. Plastino, Phys. Lett. A 193 (1994) 140] for describing a system in contact with a finite heat bath. For this situation, the two formulae for the energy fluctuation are shown to be equivalent, while the nonextensive parameter q plays a very important role.
