Abstract

Based on the microscopic transport model UrQMD in which hadronic and string degrees of freedom are employed, the HBT parameters in the longitudinal co-moving system are investigated for charged pion and kaon, and Λ\Lambda sources in heavy ion collisions (HICs) at SPS and RHIC energies. In the Cascade mode, ROR_O and the RLR_L at high SPS and RHIC energies do not follow the mTm_T-scaling, however, after considering a soft equation of state with momentum dependence (SM-EoS) for formed baryons and a density-dependent Skyrme-like potential for ``pre-formed'' particles, the HBT radii of pions and kaons and even those of Λ\Lambdas with large transverse momenta follow the mTm_T-scaling function R=3/mTR=3/\sqrt{m_T} fairly well.
