Bimodal behavior of the heaviest fragment distribution in projectile fragmentation

Description : The charge distribution of the heaviest fragment detected in the decay of quasi-projectiles produced in intermediate energy heavy-ion collisions has been observed to be bimodal. This feature is expected as a generic signal of phase transition in non-extensive systems. In this paper we present new an...

Bimodality as a signal of Liquid-Gas phase transition in nuclei?

Description : We use the HIPSE (Heavy-Ion Phase-Space Exploration) Model to discuss the origin of the bimodality in charge asymmetry observed in nuclear reactions around the Fermi energy. We show that it may be related to the important angular momentum (spin) transferred into the quasi-projectile before secondary...

Nucleation and Collapse of the Superconducting Phase in Type-I Superconducting Films

Description : The phase transition between the intermediate and normal states in type-I superconducting films is investigated using magneto-optical imaging. Magnetic hysteresis with different transition fields for collapse and nucleation of superconducting domains is found. This is accompanied by topological hyst...

Pressure-Induced Structural Transition in LuFe2O4: Towards a New Charge Ordered State

Description : The electronic ferroelectric lutetium ferrite (LuFe2O4) was studied by x-ray diffraction as a function of pressure. Pressure is shown to induce an irreversible rhombohedral to orthorhombic transition leading to a supercell determined by the combination of electron and synchrotron x-ray diffraction. ...

A Three Dimensional Kasteleyn Transition: Spin Ice in a [100] Field

Description : We examine the statistical mechanics of spin-ice materials with a [100] magnetic field. We show that the approach to saturated magnetisation is, in the low-temperature limit, an example of a 3D Kasteleyn transition, which is topological in the sense that magnetisation is changed only by excitations ...
