Temperature evolution of thermodynamic functions from symmetric to asymmetric nuclear matter

Abstract

This paper investigates thermal properties of nuclear matter using the Friedman-Pandharipande- Ravenhall equation of state. Thermodynamic quantities such as internal energy, entropy and free energy are calculated both for symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter for temperatures ranging up to 30 MeV. A change of free energy curvature indicates the liquid-gas phase transition in nuclear matter.
