Detection of source inhomogeneity through event-by-event two-pion Bose-Einstein correlations

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 error-inverse-weighted fluctuations between the two-pion correlation functions of single and mixed events are useful observables for the detection. By investigating the root-mean-square of the weighted fluctuations for different impact parameter regions people may hopefully determine the inhomogeneity of the particle-emitting in the coming Large Hadron Collider (LHC) heavy ion experiments.

Features of two-pion Bose-Einstein correlations based on event-by-event analysis in smoothed particle hydrodynamics

We examine the space-time structure of the particle-emitting sources with fluctuating initial conditions in smoothed particle hydrodynamics. The two-pion correlation functions of single events for the sources exhibit event-by-event fluctuations. The large event-by-event fluctuations and wide distributions of the error-inverse-weighted fluctuations between the HBT correlation functions of single and mixed events are important features for the sources with the fluctuating initial conditions. The root-mean-square of the weighted fluctuations is a signal to detect the inhomogeneity of the systems produced in high energy heavy ion collisions.
