Abstract

We analyze how can some dynamical process lead to exponential (Boltzmannian) distribution without instantaneous thermal equilibrium with a heat bath. We present a model for parton dressing which re-combines the exponential from cut power law minijet distributions fitted to pQCD as a limiting distribution. Thermal models and power law tails are interpreted within the framework of the more general Tsallis distribution.
