Partial coherence in the core/halo picture of Bose-Einstein n-particle correlations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the influence of a possible coherent component in the boson source on the two-, threeand n-particle correlation functions in a generalized core/halo type of boson-emitting source. In particular, a simple formula is presented for the strengh of the n-particle correlation functions for such systems. Graph rules are obtained to evaluate the correlation functions of arbitrary high order. The importance of experimental determination of the 4-th and 5-th order Bose-Einstein correlation function is emphasized.

Particle Interferometry from 40 MeV to 40 TeV
Recent developments are summarized in the theory of Bose– Einstein and Fermi–Dirac correlations, with emphasis on the necessity of a simultaneous analysis of particle spectra and quantum statistical correlations for a detailed reconstruction of the space-time picture of particle emission. The reviewed topics are as follows: basics and formalism of quantum-statistical correlations, model-indepen...

We report on a systematic treatment of Coulomb corrections for 3-and n-particle (Bose-Einstein) correlations, leading to a removal of a 100 % systematic error from earlier Coulomb corrections of 5-particle Bose-Einstein correlations in heavy ion collisions. These results are generalized to include strong final state interactions and core-halo effects.
متن کاملBOSE-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...
متن کاملAnalyses of two and three pion Bose-Einstein Correlations using Coulomb wave functions
Using effective formulas we analyze the Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) data corrected for Coulomb interactions provided by STAR Collaboration and the quasicorrected data (raw data with acceptance correction etc) on 2π and 3π BEC by using Coulomb wave function with coherence parameter included. The corresponding magnitudes of the interaction regions turn out to be almost the same: RCoul(2π) ≃ ...
متن کاملHigher Order Bose-Einstein Correlations for Systems with Large Halo
A generalization of the core/halo model to the Bose-Einstein correlation function of any number of particles is presented. In particular, a simple prediction is obtained for the intercept parameter of the n-particle Bose-Einstein correlation functions for arbitrary large values of n. Introduction. Multi-particle correlations are studied extensively in high energy collisions, with the aim of lea...
