A HIC Primitive Spinodal Decomposition Signature
Abstract
Description
Evidence of a primitive spinodal decomposition has been obtained for central Ni+Ni Heavy Ion Collision, since higher order charge correlations show a peak when four fragments of size equal to 6 are produced with an excitation of 4.75 MeV. This can be considered as a signature of a primitive breakup in equal sized fragments with a privileged fragment size. This computational result confirms other experimental and theoretical evidences about spinodal decompostion in HIC.
