Description

We report the first measurement of charged kaon Bose–Einstein correlations produced by 600 GeV/c Σ−, π− and 540 GeV/c p beams in the SELEX experiment. The SELEX (E781) experiment at Fermilab is a fixed target three–stage magnetic spectrometer designed for study hadroproduction at high acceptance... Show moreWe report the first measurement of charged kaon Bose–Einstein correlations produced by 600 GeV/c Σ−, π− and 540 GeV/c p beams in the SELEX experiment. The SELEX (E781) experiment at Fermilab is a fixed target three–stage magnetic spectrometer designed for study hadroproduction at high acceptance for forward interactions (xF ≥ 0.1). One–dimensional charged kaon correlation functions were obtained for all three beams and three pair transverse momentum ranges. The femtoscopic parameters for the radii and correlation strength of the kaon source were extracted. The fit results show the decrease of the emission source radii with the increase of the pair transverse momentum.
