Bose-Einstein correlations and b-bbar correlations in pp collisions with LHCb

Abstract

Bose-Einstein correlations for same-sign charged pions and kinematic b-bbar correlations in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 and 8 TeV are studied by the LHCb experiment. The dependence of Bose-Einstein correlation parameters on the charged-particle multiplicity is investigated. The correlation radius is observed to increase with multiplicity, while the chaoticity parameter decreases. The b-bbar correlations are studied using inclusive b quark decays to jpsi and are found to be in good agreement with theoretical predictions.
