New Wrinkles on an Old Model: Correlation Between Liquid Drop Parameters and Curvature Term

Luciano G. Moretto, James B. Elliott, Peter T. Lake +1

The relationship between the volume and surface energy coefficients in the liquid drop A^{-1/3} expansion of nuclear masses is discussed. The volume and surface coefficients in the…

An experimental measurement of the coexistence curve and critical temperature, density and pressure of bulk nuclear matter

J. B. Elliott, P. T. Lake, L. G. Moretto +1

Infinite, neutron-proton symmetric, neutral nuclear matter has a critical temperature of 17.9+-0.4 MeV, a critical density of 0.06+-0.01 nucleons per cubic fermi and a critical pre…

Reaction rate sensitivity of 44Ti production in massive stars and implications of a thick target yield measurement of 40Ca(alpha,gamma)44Ti

R. D. Hoffman, S. A. Sheets, J. T. Burke +12

We evaluate two dominant nuclear reaction rates and their uncertainties that affect 44Ti production in explosive nucleosynthesis. Experimentally we develop thick-target yields for…

Yield scalings of clusters with fewer than 100 nucleons

James B. Elliott, Kyrill A. Bugaev, Luciano G. Moretto +1

This document gives a historical review of the scaling of particles yields emitted from excited nuclei. The focus will be on what scaling is, what can be learned from scaling, the…

Can a Hagedorn system have a temperature other than or can a thermostat have a temperature other than its own?

L. G. Moretto, K. A. Bugaev, J. B. Elliott +1

This is a note intended to complement our paper (nucl-th/0504010) and addressed to the attention of QGP workers interested in bag models, Hagedorn spectra, and the like. It tries t…

The Quark-Gluon Plasma: a Perfect Thermostat and a Perfect Particle Reservoir

L. G. Moretto, K. A. Bugaev, J. B. Elliott +1

A system H with a Hagedorn-like mass spectrum imparts its unique temperature T_H to any other system coupled to it. An H system radiates particles in preexisting physical and chemi…
