## Abstract

When one integrates the q-exponential function of Tsallis' so as to get the partition function $Z$, a gamma function inevitably emerges. Consequently, poles arise. We investigate here here the thermodynamic significance of these poles in the case of $n$ classical harmonic oscillators (HO). Given that this is an exceedingly well known system, any new feature that may arise can safely be attributed to the poles' effect. We appeal to the mathematical tools used in [EPJB 89, 150 (2016) and arXiv:1702.03535 (2017)], and obtain both bound and unbound states. In the first case, we are then faced with a classical Einstein crystal. We also detect what might be interpreted as pseudo gravitational effects.
