Correlations of like-sign pion pairs emerging from proton-antiproton collisions are analysed in the two-dimensional (q_L,q_T) decomposition of the three-momentum difference q. While the data cannot be adequately represented by gaussian,…
We have measured the second-order normalized differential factorial moments as a function of the difference of transverse momentum ($\Delta p_T$) in $\p^+ p$ and $K^+ p$ collisions at 250 GeV/$c$. The second-order differential factorial…
A set of new, precise data have recently been made available by the NA49 collaboration for charged pion production in proton-proton and proton-Carbon reactions at 158 GeV. The current paper compares this new data to five currently available…
Femtoscopy, a technique of measuring the size and the dynamics of the system created in heavy-ion collisions is used extensively in experiments at RHIC, LHC, SPS, and the FAIR/GSI. Analysis for pairs of pions is most common, due to their…
We discuss the complex phase generated in three pion correlation functions. The lowest order contribution to the phase is of order $q^2 R/K$, where $q$ is a typical relative momentum, $K$ is a typical center of mass momentum and $R$ is a…
The pion source as seen through HBT correlations at RHIC energies is investigated within the UrQMD approach. We find that the calculated transverse momentum, centrality, and system size dependence of the Pratt-HBT radii $R_L$ and $R_S$ are…
We propose and develop to some extent a novel approach, which allows us to effectively describe, for relativistic heavy-ion collisions, the empirically observed deviation from unity of the intercept \lambda (i.e. the measured value…

We perform two-pion Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) interferometry for the partially coherent pion-emitting sources in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, using a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model. A longitudinal coherent emission length, as well…
In non-central heavy ion collisions, identical two particle Hanbury-Brown/Twiss (HBT) correlations C(K,q) depend on the azimuthal direction of the pair momentum K. We investigate the consequences for a harmonic analysis of the corresponding…
In the era of precision measurements in high-energy heavy-ion physics, there is an increasing expectation towards phenomenological and theoretical studies to provide a better description of data. In recent years, multiple experiments have…
Two-particle correlations of identical charged pion pairs from Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 62.4 and 200 GeV were measured by the PHOBOS experiment at RHIC. Data for the 15% most central events were analyzed with Bertsch-Pratt and…
Two-particle correlations between pions in Au+Au collisions have been measured at beam kinetic energies of 6, 8, and 10.8 GeV/u at the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) over a wide range of rapidities using a magnetic spectrometer. The…
In heavy ion collisions resonances can create strong non-Gaussian effects in the 2-pion correlation data. Hence, the commonly used Gaussian fit parameters do not fully characterize these correlators. We suggest a different set of HBT…
