Coulomb wave function corrections for n-particle Bose-Einstein correlations
نویسنده
چکیده
The effect of multi-particle Coulomb final state interactions on higher-order intensity correlations is determined in general, based on a scattering wave function which is solution of the n-body Coulomb Schrödinger equation in (a large part of) the asymptotic region of n-body configuration space. In particular, we study Coulomb effects on the n-particle Bose-Einstein correlation functions of similarly charged particles and remove a systematic error as big as 100 % from higher-order multiparticle Bose-Einstein correlation functions.

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.

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...
متن کاملCoulomb corrections for Bose-Einstein correlations in whole momentum transfer region: Proposal of seamless fitting
We applied an improved Coulomb correction method developed by us recently to data on identical KK-pairs production in S + Pb and p + Pb reactions at 200 GeV/c obtained by NA44 Collaboration. To analyse the whole range of the momentum transfers measured the method of ”seamless fitting” has been proposed and used together with the asymptotic expansion formula for the Coulomb wave function. We fou...
متن کاملThird order Bose-Einstein correlations by means of Coulomb wave function revisited
In previous works, in order to include correction by the Coulomb wave function in Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC), the two-body Coulomb scattering wave functions have been utilized in the formulation of three-body BEC. However, the threebody Coulomb scattering wave function, which satisfies approximately the three-body Coulomb scattering Schrödinger equation, cannot be written by the product o...

Using effective formulas we analyze the Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) data corrected for Coulomb interactions provided by STAR Collaboration and the quasi-corrected data 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: R Coul (2π) ≃ 3 2 R Coul (3π). R Coul means the size ...
