Phase transformations in highly excited clusters

In this communication we analyze the behavior of excited drops that undergo fragmentation. We focus our attention on two scenarios: in the first one the system is free to expand, while in the second one it is confined inside a spherical volume. It is shown that the caloric curve of free expanding sy...
