Signals for a Transition from Surface to Bulk Emission in Thermal Multifragmentation
Excitation-energy-gated two-fragment correlation functions have been studied
between 2 to 9A MeV of excitation energy for equilibrium-like sources formed in
and p + Au reactions at beam momenta of 8,9.2 and 10.2 GeV/c.
Comparison of the data to an N-body Coulomb-trajectory code shows a decrease of
one order of magnitude in the fragment emission time in the excitation energy
interval 2-5A MeV, followed by a nearly constant breakup time at higher
excitation energy. The observed decrease in emission time is shown to be
strongly correlated with the increase of the fragment emission probability, and
the onset of thermally-induced radial expansion. This result is interpreted as
evidence consistent with a transition from surface-dominated to bulk emission
expected for spinodal decomposition.Comment: 11 pages including 3 postscript figures (1 color
Multifragment production in Au+Au at 35 MeV/u
Multifragment disintegration has been measured with a high efficiency
detection system for the reaction at . From the event
shape analysis and the comparison with the predictions of a many-body
trajectories calculation the data, for central collisions, are compatible with
a fast emission from a unique fragment source.Comment: 9 pages, LaTex file, 4 postscript figures available upon request from

Source shape determination with directional fragment-fragment velocity correlations
Correlation functions, constructed from directional projections of the
relative velocities of fragments, are used to determine the shape of the
breakup volume in coordinate space. For central collisions of 129Xe + natSn at
50 MeV per nucleon incident energy, measured with the 4pi multi-detector INDRA
at GSI, a prolate shape aligned along the beam direction with an axis ratio of
1:0.7 is deduced. The sensitivity of the method is discussed in comparison with
conventional fragment-fragment velocity correlations.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figures, subm. to Phys. Lett.

CONTINUOUS LINEAR REPRESENTABILITY OF BINARY RELATIONS
NEUEFEIND W, Trockel W. CONTINUOUS LINEAR REPRESENTABILITY OF BINARY RELATIONS. ECONOMIC THEORY. 1995;6(2):351-356.A very general result on continuous linear representability of binary relations on topological vector spaces is presented. Applications of this result include individual decision making under uncertainty, i.e. expected utility theory and collective decision making, in particular, utilitaristic social welfare functions
