Critical Exponents for Nuclear Multifragmentation: dynamical lattice model
We present a dynamical and dissipative lattice model, designed to mimic
nuclear multifragmentation. Monte-Carlo simulations with this model show clear
signature of critical behaviour and reproduce experimentally observed
correlations. In particular, using techniques devised for finite systems, we
could obtain two of its critical exponents, whose values are in agreement with
those of the universality class to which nuclear multifragmentation is supposed
to belong.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures, to be published in Nuclear Physics
