Lambda-proton correlations in relativistic heavy ion collisions

Published 1999 in Physical Review Letters

ABSTRACT

The prospect of using {Lambda}p correlations to extract source sizes in relativistic heavy ion collisions is investigated. It is found that the strong interaction induces a large peak in the correlation function that provides more sensitive source size measurements than pp correlations under some circumstances. The prospect of using {Lambda}p correlations to measure the time lag between lambda and proton emissions is also studied. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
