Many-body interference between indistinguishable particles can give rise to strong correlations rooted in quantum statistics. We study such Hanbury Brown-Twiss-type correlations for number states of ultracold massive fermions. Using…
For particles emerging from a second order QCD phase transition, we show that a recently introduced shape parameter of the Bose-Einstein correlation function, the Levy index of stability equals to the correlation exponent - one of the…

In this work we provide theoretical background for the analysis of second-order correlation functions in experiments performed at the soft x-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs). Typically, soft x-ray beamlines at XFELs are equipped by the…
The peak of the two-particle Bose-Einstein correlation functions has a very interesting structure. It is often believed to have a multivariate Gaussian form. We show here that for the class of stable distributions, characterized by the…

In the study of femtoscopic correlations in high-energy physics, besides Bose--Einstein correlations, one has to take final-state interactions into account. Amongst them, Coulomb interactions play a prominent role in the case of charged…
We analyze a Hanbury Brown Twiss geometry in which particles are injected from two independent sources into a mesoscopic electrical conductor. The set-up has the property that all partial waves end in different reservoirs without generating…
Theories with generalised conformal structure contain a dimensionful parameter, which appears as an overall multiplicative factor in the action. Examples of such theories are gauge theories coupled to massless scalars and fermions with…
The Two-Point Angular Correlation Function is a standard analysis tool used to study angular anisotropies. Since BATSE's sky exposure (the angular sampling of gamma-ray bursts) is anisotropic, the TPACF should at some point identify…

We experimentally observe the two-photon interference of multimode photon pairs produced by an optical parametric oscillator far below threshold via a michelson interferometer, which shows a multipeaked structure. We find that the…
In the 1950's Hanbury Brown and Twiss showed that one could measure the angular sizes of astronomical radio sources and stars from correlations of signal intensities, rather than amplitudes, in independent detectors. Their subsequent…
Using one- and two-body density matrices, we calculate the spatial and momentum distributions, two-particle Hanbury-Brown Twiss (HBT) correlation functions, and the chaotic parameter $\lambda$ in HBT interferometry for the systems of boson…
Equal time spin--spin and pair field correlation functions are calculated for a two-chain Hubbard model using a density-matrix numerical renormalization group approach. At half-filling, the antiferromagnetic and pair field correlations both…
Femtoscopy is a unique tool to investigate the space-time geometry of the matter created in ultra-relativistic collisions. If the probability density distribution of hadron emission is parametrized, then the dependence of its parameters on…
A precise discussion of a single bond requires consideration of two-particle wave function for the particles involved. Here we define and determine rigorously the intrinsic covalency and connected characteristics on the canonical example of…
