Pion interferometry with higher-order cumulants

نویسنده

چکیده

We have measured secondand third-order cumulants in UA1 data (p̄p collisions at 630 GeV/c). Rather than quoting numerical values for source parameters, we have used these in three checks to test the “quantum statistics” theory for consistency over these cumulants. In the process, we have found a method for folding theoretical correlation functions with experimental one-particle distributions. Our preliminary results appear to indicate that, for the specific tests performed, the data contradicts the theory.

Multi-pion correlations in high energy collisions

Any-order pion inclusive distribution for a chaotic source in high energy collisions are given which can be used in both theory and experiment to analyze any-order pion interferometry. Multi-pion correlations effects on twopion and three-pion interferometry are discussed. PACS number(s): 13.85 Hd, 05.30Jp, 12.40 Ee. Hanbury-Brown and Twiss [1] were the first who applied the Bose-Einstein (BE) c...

Multipion Symmetrization Effects on the Source Distribution

Multipion Bose-Einstein(BE) correlations has now aroused great interests among physicists 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22. Among others, Lam and Lo2 were the first to suggest BASER concept in high energy physics. Zajc 3 was the first to use Monte-Carlo methods to study multipion BE correlations effects on two-pion interferometry for fixed pion multiplicity event. Pratt ...

Intermittent, Domain-Structured Coherence in the Pion Interferometry of Relativistic Nuclear Collisions

We investigate a domain-structured source in the pion interferometry of relativistic nuclear collisions. The source emits coherent pions intermittently with the background of chaotic pions. The coherent pions examined are either of a general nature or of disoriented chiral condensate. Twoand three-pion correlations for the source are shown to agree well with the recent NA44 experimental data. P...

Pion Interferometry: Recent results from SPS

Recent HBT results from the CERES experiment at the SPS are reviewed. Emphasis is put on the centrality and beam energy dependence, and the results are put into perspective with results at lower and higher beam energies. The rather weak beam energy dependence of the HBT radii may be understood in terms of a transition from baryon to pion dominated freeze-out. The observed short lifetimes and em...

Multi-Pion Correlation Effects on Two-Pion Interferometry

A general derivation of the multi-pion correlation function for completely chaotic source is given. Its effects on the pion multiplicity distribution, twopion interferometry are studied. A generalized multi-pion correlation function for a partially coherent source is also discussed.
