N ov 1 99 8 Equation of state of finite nuclei and liquid - gas phase transition

چکیده
We construct the equation of state (EOS) of finite nuclei including surface and Coulomb effects in a Thomas-Fermi framework using a finite range, momentum and density dependent two-body interaction. We identify critical temperatures for nuclei below which the EOS so constructed shows clear signals for liquid-gas phase transition in these finite systems. Comparison with the EOS of infinite nuclear matter shows that the critical density and temperature of the phase transition in nuclei are influenced by the mentioned finite size effects.

Simulations in Fermionic Molecular Dynamics simulations show, however, that even small systems exhibit all features of a phase transition, provided the total energy of the system can be determined well enough for each member of the statistical ensemble. The results are compared to the caloric curve deduced for finite nuclei by the ALADIN collaboration. The investigation of the equation of state...
متن کاملLiquid-gas phase transition in nuclei in the relativistic Thomas-Fermi theory
The equation of state (EOS) of finite nuclei is constructed in the relativistic Thomas-Fermi theory using the non-linear σ − ω − ρ model. The caloric curves are calculated by confining the nuclei in the freeze-out volume taken to be a sphere of size about 4 to 8 times the normal nuclear volume. The results obtained from the relativistic theory are not significantly different from those obtained...
متن کاملIsospin effects in the thermodynamics of finite nuclei
It has been proposed that multifragmentation can be related to the liquid-gas phase transition of nuclear matter. We study the statistical properties of finite nuclear matter near the phase transition with the help of a Lattice Gas Model (LGM). The original version of LGM with only one type of charge-neutral particles is well known to feature the properties of the liquid-gas phase transition. I...

The equation of state for quark and nuclear matter is encoded in the effective potential of a linear sigma model. We exploit an exact differential equation for its dependence upon the chemical potential µ associated to conserved baryon number. This equation describes the transitions from a nucleon gas to nuclear matter and from nuclear matter to quark matter within the same model. For vanishing...
متن کاملCalculation of Thermodynamic Properties of the Quasi-one Dimensional Liquid 3He at Finite Temperature
We have used a variational approach to calculate some thermodynamic properties of the quasi-one dimensional liquid 3He such as the energy, entropy, free energy, equation of state and heat capacity at finite temperature. We have employed the Lennard-Jones potential as the inter-atomic interaction. We have seen that the total energy increases by increasing both temperature and density....
