✦ Synopsis

Thanks to the high detection quality of the INDRA array, signatures related to the dynamics (spinodal decomposition) and thermodynamics (negative microcanonical heat capacity) of a liquid-gas phase transition have been simultaneously studied in multifragmentation events in the Fermi energy domain.

The correlation between both types of signals strongly supports the existence of a first order phase transition for hot nuclei.

Motivated by physical applications we consider a mathematical model describing the evaporation process in solid-liquid-gas systems with two moving boundaries of the phase transition. An alkali metal generator with a working substance in the form of an intermetallic compound and the evaporation of a
