The authors' main claim It is found that the specific heat at constant area and other thermodynamical quantities exhibit singularities related to phase transitions during the collapse.

The abstract, sentence by sentence
We describe the quasi-static collapse of a radiating, spherical shell of matter in de Sitter space-time using a thermodynamical formalism. It is found that the specific heat at constant area and other thermodynamical quantities exhibit singularities related to phase transitions during the collapse.
