Most models of Bose-Einstein correlations in multiple particle production processes can be ascribed to one of the following three broad classes: models based on the original idea of the Goldhabers, Lee nad Pais, hydrodynamic models and…
We look at the new two-particle correlation function that can provide the space-time information about the source of two charged pions. This function clearly reflects the chaotic and incoherent nature of the particle emission source…
Bose-Einstein correlations are studied in the framework of a class of independent particle production models. This generalizes the studies for a variety of models proposed previously. It is shown that the Bose-Einstein correlations lead for…

Two-particle correlation functions are calculated for bosons emitted from a localized thermal source (the ``glow'' of a ``hot spot''). In contrast to existing work, non-equilibrium effects up to first order in gradients of the particle…

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…
Some basic difficulties and ambiguities on the way from the measured momentum distributions to the inferred properties of the interaction regions are reviewed and discussed.
The effects of interpreting classical phase space distributions as Wigner functions, which is common in models of multiparticle production, are discussed. The temperature for the classical description is always higher than that for its…
Bose-Einstein correlations of two identically charged $Q$-bosons are derived considering these particles to be confined in finite volumes. Boundary effects on single $Q$-boson spectrum are also studied. We illustrate the effects on the…
