  26. In the grand-canonical approximation: Neutrons ...speculation... Conclusion & Outlook

  27. What have we learnt? Isotopic Effects • Global N/Z effects are small • Isotope distributions exhibit memory and structure effects • Temperature invariant with N/Z in contradiction to limiting temperature assumption • Isoscaling • Isoscaling data extended into the vaporization regime • Reduced symmetry term at freeze-out • …something…. Conclusion & Outlook

  28. …need to be answered… • Why does the limiting temperature approximation seem to work so well for the masses but not for the isospin? • Isoscaling...why does it work so well? • Does D really remain constant? • Unique Chance: NEUTRONS! Conclusion & Outlook
