- Abstract
In this work we study the thermodynamic properties of an asymmetric system with arbitrary proton fraction, $y = \frac{N_p}{N_p+N_n}$. We employ a Skyrme model in which surface and Coulomb effects are included phenomenologically to treat finite nuclei. We analyze the chemical and mechanical instabilities as a function of the asymmetry parameter. The coexistence surfaces (binodals) for different temperatures are constructed. We present applications to a set of finite nuclei, taking their critical parameters into account.
