The light quarks $u$ and $d$ are considered massless while mass of the $s$ quark is taken as $150$ MeV. Using discrete eigen energies of the non-interacting quarks in the bag, grand canonical partition function is constructed and then the free energy is minimized with respect to the bag radius. In the $T\\rightarrow 0$ limit clear shell structures are found which persist upto about $T=10$ MeV. Infact for $A=6$ the shell structure disappears only at $T > 20$ MeV.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1995-05-29T04:47:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "24.85.+p", "12.39.Ba", "12.38.Mh" ], "keywords": [ "finite temperature", "strangelets", "limit clear shell structures", "mit bag model picture", "grand canonical partition function" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
