Conference · · AIP Conf. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5549386
An inclusive experiment in which isotopically resolved fragments, 3less than or equal toZless than or equal to13, were produced in high energy proton-nucleus collisions has provided evidence for a liquid-gas phase transition in nuclei. We review briefly the data and its description in terms of a critical phenomenon.
