Abstract

Statistical considerations are applied to the multifragment disassembly of a piece of hot nuclear matter created in medium-energy nuclear collisions. A two-stage model, consisting of a quick explosion and a slower evaporation, is presented. Results are compared to those of previous simpler calculations and to recent experimental data. The agreement is encouraging for a realistic range of the main parameters of the model: the available energy per nucleon, the isospin asymmetry, and the extension of the primary explosion in space and time.
