Structural transitions in biomolecules - a numerical comparison of two   approaches for the study of phase transitions in small systems
  We compare two recently proposed methods for the characterization of phase transitions in small systems. The usefulness of these techniques is evaluated for the case of structural transition in alanine-based peptides.
