Thermodynamical properties of highly excited quasi-projectiles Original Research Article

We present a systematic investigation of thermodynamical properties of the well characterized hot quasi-projectiles with mass A=20−30, originating from the reactions 28Si + 112,124Sn at projectile energy at 30 and 50 AMeV. The signals for the isospin-asymmetric liquid-gas phase transition in the nuclear matter as a process underlying to statistical multifragmentation of quasiprojectiles are investigated.
