We observed Bose-Einstein correlation in pi0 pairs produced in Z0 decays using the data sample collected by the OPAL detector at LEP 1 from 1991 to 1995. Using a static Gaussian picture for the pion emitter source, we obtain the chaoticity…
Long-range correlation plays an important role in analyses of pionic Bose-Einstein correlations (BECs). In many cases, such correlations are phenomenologically introduced. In this investigation, we propose an analytic form. By making use of…
Estimation of the back-to-back pi-pi correlations arising due to evolution of the pionic field in the course of pion production process is given for central heavy nucleus collisions at moderate energies.
We investigate the uncertainty induced by the Higgs-boson mass on the determination of $m_W$ from the LEP-2 run near the threshold for $W$-pair production. For a light Higgs boson the Yukawa interaction between the two slowly-moving $W$…
Possibility of establishment of equilibrium between the photon and the dense photon bunch is studied. In the case, when the density of plasma does not change, the condition of production of the Bose-Einstein condensate is obtained. It is…
Particle correlations are extensively studied to obtain information about the dynamics of hadron production. From 1989 to 2000 the four LEP collaborations recorded more than 16 million hadronic Z0 decays and several thousand W+W- events. In…
Results on W-pair productions at LEP2 are reviewed and their consistency with standard electroweak expectations is summarised. Special interest is given to measurements of W polarisation, and to new studies of spin and decay-plane…
It is well understood that the studies of correlations between produced particles, the effects of coherence and chaoticity, an estimation of particle emitting source size play an important role in high energy physics [1]. First of all, we…
Bose-Einstein correlations of identical hadrons reveal information about hadron creation from the strongly interacting matter formed in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. The measurement of three-particle correlations may in particular…
It is shown that the density of two {\it initially independent} condensates which are allowed to expand and overlap can show interferences as a function of time due to interparticle interaction. Using many-body theory, explicit expressions…
The present status of the use of two-particle intensity interferometry as a diagnostic tool to study the space-time dynamics of intermediate energy heavy ion collisions is examined. Calculations for the two-proton and two-pion correlation…
The evolution of the experimental knowledge and of the theoretical ideas about Bose-Einstein correlations in multiple particle production processes, during the first thirty years from their discovery, is reviewed.
We study the effect of isospin projections on a two source picture of coherent pions coming from nucleon-antinucleon annihilation. We show that important Hanbury-Brown Twiss correlations among like charge pion pairs compared with unlike…
A wavepacket model for a system of free pions, which takes into account the full permutation symmetry of the wavefunction and which is suitable for any phase space parametrization is developed. The properties of the resulting mixed…
Accurate and sensitive measurements of higher order cumulants open up new approaches to pion interferometry. It is now possible to test whether a given theoretical prediction can consistently match cumulants of both second and third order.…
We develop a method for detecting the inhomogeneity of the pion-emitting sources produced in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions, through event-by-event two-pion Bose-Einstein correlations. The root-mean-square of the…
Sonoluminescence may be studied in detail by intensity correlations among the emitted photons. As an example, we discuss an experiment to measure the size of the light-emitting region by the Hanbury Brown-Twiss effect. We show that single…
Various methods of implementing the Bose-Einstein effect into Monte Carlo generators, especially for the process e^+ e^- > W^+ W^-, are briefly reviewed and their predictions for the W mass shifts are compared. The weight methods, which…
Recent results on modelling Bose-Einstein effect in Monte Carlo generators for a source with no spherical symmetry (as seen in the data on $Z^0$ hadronic decays) are reported. Modifications of the weight method necessary for $W^+W^-$ decays…
A summary of the W-boson properties measured by the four LEP collaborations is presented here. These properties are updated to take into account the most recent results presented at the ICHEP98 conference.
