A corrigendum on

Olbert’s Kappa Fermi and Bose Distributions

by Treumann, R. A. and Baumjohann, W. (2021). Front. Phys. 9:672836. doi: 10.3389/fphy.2021.672836

In the original article, we accidentally missed to include some factorized term in Eqs 19 and 20 when resubmitting the article:

A correction has been made to Section 5: The Kappa Bose Distribution section. The corrected “Equations,” completed by the last bracketed factor, read:

Eq. (19):

nαOB={[1β(μϵα)/κ](κ+s)1}1+1/(κ+s)[1β(μϵα)/κ]2(1)

Eq. (20):

ZOBαnαOB=α{[1β(μϵα)/κ](κ+s)1}1+1/(κ+s)[1β(μϵα)/κ]2(2)

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.

Keywords: Kappa distribution, Fermi- and Bose distributions, solid state and condensed matter, quantum distributions, degenerate matter, entropy
