Hagedorn Thermostat: A Novel View of Hadronic Thermodynamics
K. A. Bugaev, J. B. Elliott, L. G. Moretto +1
A microcanonical treatment of Hagedorn systems, i.e. finite mass hadronic resonances with an exponential mass spectrum controlled by the Hagedorn temperature , is performed. W…
Uniqueness of Fisher plots and their inferred (nuclear) liquid-vapor phase diagrams
J. B. Elliott, L. G. Moretto, L. Phair
A detailed study of the lattice gas (Ising) model shows that the correct definition of cluster concentration in the vapor at coexistence with the liquid leads to Fisher plots that…
Precise Barriers and Shell Effects: a New Inroad to Fission Saddle Point Spectroscopy
L. Phair, L. G. Moretto, K. X. Jing +6
Fission excitation functions have been measured for a chain of neighboring compound nuclei, from 207Po to 212Po. We present a new analysis which provides a determination of the fis…
Comment on ``Entry Distribution, Fission Barrier, and Formation Mechanism of 254No''
L. G. Moretto, L. Phair, G. J. Wozniak
A recent paper has reported the observation of the rotational band of 254No for spins up to I=20, showing that the compound nucleus was formed and survived fission decay at angular…
Liquid-vapor phase transition in nuclei or compound nucleus decay?
L. G. Moretto, J. B. Elliott, L. Phair +1
Recent analyses of multifragmentation in terms of Fisher's model and the related construction of a phase diagram brings forth the problem of the true existence of the vapor phase a…
Negative heat capacities and first order phase transitions in nuclei and other mesoscopic systems
L. G. Moretto, J. B. Elliott, L. Phair +1
The origin of predicted and observed anomalies in caloric curves of nuclei and other mesoscopic systems is investigated. It is shown that a straightforward thermodynamical treatmen…
