Critical behaviors in central and peripheral collisions: a comparative analysis

M. D'Agostino, M. Bruno, F. Gulminelli +9

Quasi-projectile events from peripheral 35 A.MeV Au+ Au collisions are compared to central Au + C, Au + Cu and Au + Au events in the same range of excitation energy in terms of cri…

On the reliability of negative heat capacity measurements

M. D'Agostino, R. Bougault, F. Gulminelli +9

A global protocol for the thermostatistical analysis of hot nuclear sources is discussed. Within our method of minimization of variances we show that the abnormal kinetic energy fl…

Strong enhancement of extremely energetic proton production in central heavy ion collisions at intermediate energy

P. Sapienza, R. Coniglione, M. Colonna +27

The energetic proton emission has been investigated as a function of the reaction centrality for the system 58Ni + 58Ni at 30A MeV. Extremely energetic protons (EpNN > 130 MeV) wer…
