Abstract

We consider Tsallis cosmology as an approach to thermodynamic gravity and derive the bound on the Tsallis parameter to be β<2 by using the constraints derived from the formation of the primordial light elements, Helium, Deuterium and Litium, from the observational data from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) which allows only a very tiny deviation from General Relativity (GR). Next we consider thermal dark matter (DM) freeze-out mechanism in Tsallis cosmological era and derive bounds on the Tsallis parameter from the observed DM relic abundance to be 1-β< 10-5.
