Abstract
The Sakhalin Island earthquake catalog is considered from the standpoint of non-extensive statistical physics (NESP). The analysis is based on the concept of entropy, which was introduced in 1988 by Constantino Tsallis as a generalization of the standard Boltzmann–Gibbs entropy. To describe the distribution functions of earthquakes, a modified stick-slip earthquake source model was used - stick-slip of two plates relative to each other along a fault in the presence of friction and filling fragments between the fault surfaces and the Tsallis entropy maximum principle. It is shown that the earthquake flux is a system with memory and long-range spatial correlations, and the calculated values of the Tsallis parameter q ~ 1.5 almost coincide with the values obtained for the magnitudes of the catalogs of various seismically active regions. At the same time, when analyzing the flow of events related to technogenic impacts (explosions), it was determined that the value of the Tsallis parameter q is lower than that calculated from the earthquake catalog. Such areas where blasting is carried out are characterized by a low value of the Tsallis parameter q.
