Jean Cleymans, Stringy Thermal Model, Tsallis Quantum Statistics

Abstract

My memories on Jean Cleymans and a brief advocation of the stringy thermal model, describing massless constituents with the energy-per-particle and temperature relation, E/N=6T=1 GeV, are presented. Another topic, the Kubo–Martin–Schwinger (KMS) relation applied to the Tsallis distribution in quantum statistics is also sketched, which was triggered by our discussions with Jean.
