Abstract: We discuss a Tsallis distribution with complex nonextensivity parameter q. In this case the usual distribution is decorated with a log-periodic oscillating factor (apparently, such oscillations can be seen in recently measured transverse momentum distributions in collisions at very high energies). Complex q also means complex heat capacity which shall also be briefly discussed.
