Parastatistics

In quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics, parastatistics is a hypothetical alternative[1] to the established particle statistics models (Bose–Einstein statistics, Fermi–Dirac statistics and Maxwell–Boltzmann statistics). Other alternatives include anyonic statistics and braid statistics, both of these involving lower spacetime dimensions. Herbert S. Green[2] is credited with the creation of parastatistics in 1953.[3][4] The particles predicted by parastatistics have not been experimentally observed.
