Fragmentation of Neutron Star Matter
P. N. Alcain, C. O. Dorso
Background: Neutron stars are astronomical systems with nucleons submitted to extreme conditions. Due to the long range coulomb repulsion between protons, the system has structural…
Effect of Coulomb Screening Length on Nuclear Pasta Simulations
P. N. Alcain, P. A. Giménez Molinelli, J. I. Nichols +1
We study the role of the effective Coulomb interaction strength and length on the dynamics of nucleons in conditions according to those in a neutron star's crust. Calculations were…
Enhancement of kinetic energy fluctuations due to expansion
A. Chernomoretz, F. Gulminelli, M. J. Ison +1
Global equilibrium fragmentation inside a freeze out constraining volume is a working hypothesis widely used in nuclear fragmentation statistical models. In the framework of classi…
Information entropy in fragmenting systems
Pablo Balenzuela, C. O. Dorso
The possibility of facing critical phenomena in nuclear fragmentation is a topic of great interest. Different observables have been proposed to identify such a behavior, in particu…
Time dependence of critical behavior in multifragmentation
P. Balenzuela, A. Chernomoretz, C. O. Dorso
We study signatures of critical behavior in microscopic simulations of small, highly excited Lennard-Jones drops. We focus our attention on the behavior of the system at the time o…
A Quasi-Classical Model of Intermediate Velocity Particle Production in Asymmetric Heavy Ion Reactions
A. Chernomoretz, L. Gingras, Y. Larochelle +4
The particle emission at intermediate velocities in mass asymmetric reactions is studied within the framework of classical molecular dynamics. Two reactions in the Fermi energy dom…
Non equilibrium effects in fragmentation
A. Chernomoretz, M. Ison, S. Ortiz +1
We study, using molecular dynamics techniques, how boundary conditions affect the process of fragmentation of finite, highly excited, Lennard-Jones systems. We analyze the behavior…
Temperature and energy partition in fragmentation
A. Strachan, C. O. Dorso
We study fragmentation of small atomistic clusters via molecular dynamics. We calculate the time scales related to fragment formation and emission. We also show that some degree of…
Caloric curve in fragmentation
A. Strachan, C. O. Dorso
We study phase transitions of small two dimensional Lennard Jones drops via microcanonical molecular dynamics in a broad energy range. We found that the caloric curve can be extend…
