Non-Gibbs Particle Spectra from Thermal Equilibrium
  We propose that transverse momentum spectra with power-law tails observed in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions can be interpreted as originating in a medium in thermal equilibrium. General conditions on the dynamical equations are formulated, leading in equilibrium to various energy distributions of particles. Starting with the linear Fokker-Planck equation we analyze conditions for Boltzmann-Gibbs, Tsallis, or other equilibrium distributions based upon the dependence of fluctuation and dissipation on the energy of the observed subsystem. RHIC neutral pion data definitely exclude Boltzmann-Gibbs distribution over the entire range of observed transverse momenta.
