In the framework of classical Lennard Jones molecular dynamics, we study how the relaxation of the fixed volume constraint affects the posterior evolution of microscopic correlations, and how a non-confined fragmentation scenario is established. A study of the dynamical evolution of the relative kinetic energy fluctuations was also performed. We found that asymptotic measurements of such observable can be related to the number of decaying channels available to the system at fragmentation time.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-01-16T23:24:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "02.70.Ns", "25.70.Mn", "25.70.Pq" ], "keywords": [ "enhancement", "global equilibrium fragmentation inside", "classical lennard jones molecular dynamics", "fixed volume constraint affects", "relative kinetic energy fluctuations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
