Abstract
Abnormal production of events with almost equal-sized fragments was theoretically proposed as a signature of spinodal instabilities responsible for nuclear multifragmentation. Many-fragment correlations can be used to enlighten any extra production of events with specific fragment partitions. The high sensitivity of such correlation methods makes it particularly appropriate to look for small numbers of events as those expected to have kept a memory of spinodal decomposition properties and to reveal the dynamics of a first-order phase transition for nuclear matter and nuclei. This paper summarizes results obtained so far for both experimental and dynamical simulations data.
