Abstract
We discuss the hierarchy of subphase transitions in first-order-like nucleation processes for an exemplified aggregation transition of heteropolymers. We perform an analysis of the microcanonical entropy, i.e., the density of states is considered as the central statistical system quantity since it connects system-specific entropic and energetic information in a natural and unique way.
