Nuclear coalescence from correlation functions
We derive a simple formula relating the cross section for light cluster production (defined via a coalescence factor) to the two-proton correlation function measured in heavy-ion collisions. The formula generalizes earlier coalescence-correlation relations found by Scheibl & Heinz and by Mrowczy...

description | We derive a simple formula relating the cross section for light cluster production (defined via a coalescence factor) to the two-proton correlation function measured in heavy-ion collisions. The formula generalizes earlier coalescence-correlation relations found by Scheibl & Heinz and by Mrowczynski for Gaussian source models. It motivates joint experimental analyses of Hanbury-Brown–Twiss (HBT) and cluster yield measurements in existing and future data sets. |
