Description

Tsallis' thermostatistics with the standard linear average energy is revisited by employing S2-q, which is the Tsallis entropy with q replaced by 2-q. We explore the connections among the S2-q approach and the other different versions of Tsallis formalisms. It is shown that the normalized q-average energy and the standard linear average energy are related to each other. The relations among the Lagrange multipliers of the different versions are revealed. The relevant Legendre transform structures concerning the Lagrange multipliers associated with the normalization of probability are studied. It is shown that the generalized Massieu potential associated with S2-q and the linear average energy is related to one associated with the normalized Tsallis entropy and the normalized q-average energy
