Event-by-event analysis of proton-induced nuclear multifragmentation: determination of the phase transition universality class in a system with extreme finite-size constraints

A percolation model of nuclear fragmentation is used to interpret 10.2 GeV/c p+197Au multifragmentation data. Emphasis is put on finding signatures of a continuous nuclear matter phase transition in finite nuclear systems. Based on model calculations, corrections accounting for physical constraints...
