The effect of initial state momentum-space anisotropy on invariant mass dependence of HBT radii extracted from the leptonpair interferometry is presented here. We have studied the Bose-Einstein Correlation Function (BECF) for two identical virtual photons decaying to leptonpairs at most central collision of LHC energy having fixed transverse momentum of one of the virtual photons ($k_{1T}$= 2 GeV). The {em free streaming interpolating} model with fixed initial condition has been used for the evolution in anisotropic Quark Gluon Plasma (aQGP) and the relativistic (1+2)d hydrodynamics model with cylindrical symmetry and longitudinal boost invariance has been used for both isotropic Quark Gluon Plasma (iQGP) and hadronic phases. We found a significant change in the spatial and temporal dimension of the evolving system in presence of initial state momentum-space anisotropy.
Azimuthal angle dependence of the pion source radii was measured applying the event shape selection at the PHENIX experiment. The measured final source eccentricity is found to be enhanced when selecting events with higher magnitude of the second-order flow vector, as well as the elliptic flow coefficient $v_{2}$. The spatial twist of the particle-emitting source was also explored using a transport model. Results indicate a possible twisted source in the final state due to the initial longitudinal fluctuations.
In this paper we summarize the ellipsoidally symmetric Buda-Lund models results on HBT radii. We calculate the Bose-Einstein correlation function from the model and derive formulas for the transverse momentum dependence of the correlation radii in the Bertsch-Pratt system of out, side and longitudinal directions. We show a comparison to $sqrt{s_{rm NN}}=200 GeV$ RHIC PHENIX two-pion correlation data and make prediction on the same observable for different particles.
We describe RHIC pion data in central A+A collisions and make predictions for LHC based on hydro-kinetic model, describing continuous 4D particle emission, and initial conditions taken from Color Glass Condensate (CGC) model.
We present a calculation of the elliptic flow and azimuthal dependence of the correlation radii in the ellipsoidally symmetric generalization of the Buda-Lund model. The elliptic flow is shown to depend only on the flow anisotropy while in case of correlation radii both flow and space anisotropy play an important role in determining their azimuthal oscillation. We also outline a simple procedure for determining the parameters of the model from data.
Two-particle Hanbury-Brown-Twiss (HBT) interferometry is an important probe for understanding the space-time structure of particle emission sources in high energy heavy ion collisions. We present the comparative studies of HBT radii in Pb+Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm{NN}}}$ = 17.3 GeV with Au+Au collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm{NN}}}$ = 19.6 GeV. To further our understanding for this specific energy regime we also compare the HBT radii for Au+Au collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm{NN}}}$ = 19.6 GeV with Cu+Cu collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm{NN}}}$ = 22.4 GeV. We have found interesting similarity in the $R_{rm out}/R_{rm side}$ ratio with $m_{rm T}$ across the collision systems while comparing the data for this specific energy zone which is interesting as it acts as a bridge from SPS energy regime to the RHIC energy domain.
