Abstract
Within a recently generalized thermostatistical framework which allows for non-extensive effects, we discuss numerically the ideal paramagne t (N non-interacting localized spins in the presence of an external ma gnetic field) in order to illustrate the existence of a well behaved t hermodynamic limit for the canonical ensemble. Both the specific heat (generalized Schottky anomaly) and the isothermal magnetic susceptibil ity (generalized Curie law) are calculated and data collapse is exhibi ted for N much greater than 1. In addition to this, and within a molec ular-field approximation, we have generalized the Curie-Weiss law.
