Bose-Einstein correlations in thermal field theory

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 distribution function are taken into account. The spectral width of the bosons is shown to be an important quantity: If it is too small, they do not equilibrate locally and therefore strongly increase the measured correlation radius. In memoriam of Eugene Wigner and Hiroomi Umezawa.

Photon Interferometry of Quark-Gluon Dynamics Revisited

The Bose-Einstein correlations of photons emitted {}from a longitudinally expanding system of excited matter produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collision are studied. Two effects found in recent calculations -- that the correlation function in longitudinal direction exhibits oscillations, and that it takes values below unity -- are demonstrated to be numerical artefacts and/or the results of inappropriate approximations. Thus, the general quantum statistical bounds for the two particle correlation function of a chaotic source with Gaussian fluctuations are confirmed. Two different expressions for the two-photon inclusive distribution are considered. Depending on which of the two expressions is used in the calculation, the width of the correlation function may vary by as much as $30\%$. PACS numbers: 05.30.Jp, 13.85.Hd, 25.75.+r, 12.40.Ee

Bounds for Bose-Einstein Correlation Functions

Bounds for the correlation functions of identical bosons are discussed for the general case of a Gaussian density matrix. In particular, for a purely chaotic system the two-particle correlation function must always be greater than one. On the other hand, in the presence of a coherent component the correlation function may take values below unity. The experimental situation is briefly discussed.

Dynamical Properties of Heavy-Ion Collisions from the Photon-Photon Intensity Correlations

We consider here the bremsstrahlung emission of photons at low and intermediate energies $ E_{lab}\le 1000 MeV/u$ of the projectile. and derive expressions more general than previous results obtained by Neuhauser which were limited to the case of isotropic systems. We find that the two-photon correlation function strongly depends not only on the space-time properties of the collision region but also on the dynamics of the proton-neutron scattering process in nuclear matter. As a consequence of polarisation correlations it turns out that for a purely chaotic source the intercept of the correlation function of photons can reach the value $3$ (as compared with the maximum value $2$ for isotropic systems). Furthermore even for ``hard" photons ($E_γ > 25 MeV$) the maximum of the correlation function can reach the value of $2$ in contrast with the value of $1.5$ derived by Neuhauser for this case. The formulae obtained in this paper which include also the possible presence of a coherent component can be used as a basis for a systematic analysis of photon intensity-interferometry experiments.
