This is a short talk where concepts emerging from statistical physics, mainly from
nonextensive statistical mechanics are applied to problems concerning the
distribution of energy in earthquakes and the interaction of ionizing radiation
with living tissues. In the case of earthquakes, an expression for the
distribution of seismic energy is obtained whereas the application to
radiobiology gives interesting results concerning the survival probability of
irradiated tissues.
