On the basis of morphological thermodynamics we develop an exactly solvable
version of statistical mutifragmentation model for the nuclear liquid-gas phase
transition. It is shown that the hard-core repulsion between spherical nuclei
generates only the bulk (volume), surface and curvature parts of the free
energy of the nucleus, while the Gaussian curvature one does not appear in the
derivation. The phase diagram of nuclear liquid-gas phase transition is studied
for a truncated version of the developed model.Comment: Talk given at XIX Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute Conference
