Comments on Superstatistical properties of the one-dimensional Dirac oscillator by Abdelmalek Boumali et al.

Abstract In this comment, we discuss the mathematical formalism used in Boumali et al. (2020) which describes the superstatistical thermal properties of a one-dimensional Dirac oscillator. In particular, we point out the importance of maintaining the Legendre structure unaltered to ensure an accurate description of the thermodynamic observables when a Tsallis-like statistical description is assumed. Also, we remark that all the negative poles have to take into account to calculate the Gibbs-Boltzmann partition function. Our findings show that the divergences obtained by the authors in the Helmholtz free energy, which are propagated to the other thermal properties, are a consequence of an incomplete partition function. Moreover, we prove that the restrictions over the q -parameter are no needed if an appropriate partition function describes the system.
