Caloric Curves for small systems in the Nuclear Lattice Gas Model

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-06 v1

Abstract

For pedagogical reasons we compute the caloric curve for 11 particles in a 333^3 lattice. Monte-Carlo simulation can be avoided and exact results are obtained. There is no back-bending in the caloric curve and negative specific heat does not appear. We point out that the introduction of kinetic energy in the nuclear Lattice Gas Model modifies the results of the standard Lattice Gas Model in a profound way.
