COEXISTENCE AND PHASE-SEPARATION IN CLUSTERS - FROM THE SMALL TO THE NOT-SO-SMALL REGIME
We generalize the necessary and sufficient conditions for finite systems to exhibit van der Waals-type loops (or "S-bends") in thermodynamic functions. In the infinite limit, such features are forbidden by Van Hove's theorem, and phase separation occurs instead. However, in small syst...
