Two-particle correlations measured by PHENIX in Ausingle bondAu collisions at image GeV Original Research Article

In 2001, PHENIX measured particle correlations of identical charged pions and kaons at mid-rapidity in Ausingle bondAu collisions at View the MathML source GeV. Bertsch-Pratt radius parameters of pion pairs are studied for 9 kT regions from 0.2 to 2.0 GeB/c and for 9 selections of collision centralities. The pion radius parameters are consistent with the result at View the MathML source GeV, and the ratio Rout/Rside is below 1 in all 〈kT〉 ranges up to 1.2 GeV/c. The radius parameters from charged kaon correlations are compared with those of pions.
