Inter-w Bose-einstein Correlations... or Not?

چکیده

A critical summary is given of the present status of the study of Bose-Einstein Correlations in W-pair production at LEP II. In particular, the evidence is reviewed for or against the existence of Bose-Einstein correlations between pions originating both from a different of the two W's. If present, such an inter-W interference would not only form a potential bias in the determination of the W mass, but also would provide a laboratory to measure the space-time development of the overlap. If absent, this would drastically change the conventional (Hanbury Brown and Twiss) picture of pion interferometry in high energy physics.

Bose-einstein Correlations in W+w Events at Lep2

Analyses of Bose-Einstein Correlations in WW events at LEP2 by the four LEP collaborations are presented. In particular, Bose-Einstein correlations in WW overlap are investigated and the possible existence of these correlations between particles coming from different W’s, which may influence the W-mass measurements in the fully hadronic channel ee → WW → q1q̄2q3q̄4. No evidence for such an inter-...

BOSE-EINSTEIN CORRELATIONS IN PION PRODUCTION AT TRISTAN

Measurement of Bose-Einstein correlations in the production of like-signed pion pairs has been made with the AMY detector at TRISTAN. An event sample of 10120 hadronic events with ranging between 50 to 61 GeV was used. These measurements indicate a strength of the enhancement of ? = 0.61M.07, with a typical correlation size of Ro = 1.16±.08 fm. This value of ? is consistent with measurem...

Bose - Einstein Correlations and Color Reconnectionin W - pair productionS

We propose a systematic study of Bose-Einstein correlations between identical hadrons coming from diierent W decays. Experimentally accessible signatures of these correlations as well as of possible color reconnection eeects are discussed on the basis of two-particle inclusive densities.

The studies of Fermi–Dirac correlations of ΛΛ and ¯ Λ ¯ Λ pairs in hadronic Z decays, Bose–Einstein correlations and colour reconnection in W-pairs decays performed by the ALEPH collaboration in e + e − annihilation at LEP are presented. The OPAL analysis of Bose–Einstein correlations in W-pair decays is also discussed.
