The dependence of Bose-Einstein Correlations on energy, multiplicity and
hadronic jets    [PDF]

Gideon Alexander

The dependence of the one dimensional Bose-Einstein correlation R_1D derived
from proton-proton collisions is examined in terms of energy, hadron
multiplicity and number of emerging hadronic jets. It is argued that the
observed rise of R_1D with energy is the result of the increase of the average
number of hadronic jets. It is further shown that by the relative
straightforward measurements of R_1D and its chaoticity parameter $\lambda$ one
should be able to estimate the average number of outgoing hadronic jets emitted
over the entire final state phase space without the necessity to rely on a
particular jet finding algorithm and its associated parameters.
