Abstract
We derive the continuous canonical distribution only by requiring the extensivity of the mean energy and the multiplicative probabilistic composition rule. The derivation is independent of the thermodynamic limit and moreover it does not use the usual equal a priori probability postulate. We numerically demonstrate the implications of our derivation for the free and oscillating molecules.
