Possible formulations for three-charged particles correlations in terms of Coulomb wave functions

The recent data for Bose-Einstein Correlations (BEC) of three-charged particles obtained by NA44 Collaboration have been analysed using theoretical formula with Coulomb wave functions. It has been recently proposed by Alt et al. It turns out that there are discrepancies between these data and the respective theoretical values. To resolve this problem we seek a possibly modified theoretical formulation of this problem by introducing the degree of coherence for the exchange effect due to the BEC between two-identical bosons. As a result we obtain a modified formulation for the BEC of three-charged particles showing good agreement with the data. Moreover, we investigate physical connection between our modified formulation and the core-halo model proposed by Csörgő et al. Our study indicates that the interaction region estimated by the BEC of three-charged particles in the S + Pb collisions at 200 GeV/c per nucleon is equal to about 1.5 fm∼1.8 fm.
