Abstract
A schematic model is presented that allows one to study the behavior of interacting neutral isosymmetric pseudo-Fermi matter, locked in a thermostatic box. As a function of the box volume and temperature, the matter is seen to show all of the familiar characteristics of a van der Waals gas, which include the coexistence of two phases under certain circumstances and the presence of a critical point.
