On the First Order Phase Transitions Signal in Multiple Production   Processes
  We offer the parameter, interpreted as the "chemical potential", which is sensitive to the first order phase transition: it must decrease with number of evaporating (produced) particles (hadrons) if the (interacting hadron or/and QCD plasma) medium is boiling and it increase if no phase transition occur. The main part of the paper is devoted to the question: how one can measure the "chemical potential" in the hadron inelastic processes. Our definition of this parameter is quite general but assumes that the hadron multiplicity is sufficiently large. The simple transparent phenomenological lattice gas model is considered for sake of clarity only.
