Small-Angle Correlations of Identical Particles in Carbon-Carbon Interactions at P=4.2 GeV/C Per Nucleon

摘要

Two-particle small-angle correlations between negative pions and between protons in all inelastic and ''central'' carbon-carbon collisions at P=4.2 GeV/c per nucleon have been studied. A comparison of experimental pi exp - pi exp - and pp correlation functions with theoretical predictions has been made. A possible evidence for the existence of two fireballs in C+C interactions at P=4.2 GeV/c per nucleon is presented. (Atomindex citation 15:055022)
