No dinosaurs in microcanonical gravitation: No special "microcanonical phase transitions"

arXiv:cond-mat/0307535

Abstract

It is shown that the recently introduced singularities of the microcanonical entropy like "microcanonical phase transitions", and exotic pattern of the microcanonical caloric curve T(E) like multi-valuednes or the appearance of "dinosaur's necks" are inconsistent with Boltzmann's fundamental definition of entropy S=ln[W(E)] for a system at equilibrium even for extremely large systems as astro-physical ones.
