Abstract
Femtoscopy is a powerful tool for exploring the dynamic emitting structure in heavy-ion collisions, while radioactive beam heavy-ion collisions enable the investigation of nuclear matter under extreme isospin conditions. Here, we successfully perform femtoscopy measurements using the SπRIT Time Projection Chamber (TPC). A dedicated correction scheme for track merging and splitting is proposed, which is well applicable to rectangular TPCs housed inside dipole magnets and effectively improves the reconstructed correlation functions at small relative momenta. Focusing on the proton-proton (p-p) correlation function in the 270 MeV/u 132Sn+124Sn system, we successfully apply the track merging and splitting correction; additionally, the TPC angular acceptance exhibits a negligible impact on the correlation function. A systematic uncertainty quantification framework is established. The experimental results of the p-p correlation function confirm the feasibility of the SπRIT TPC for femtoscopy measurements and provide technical support for high-precision femtoscopy studies using rectangular TPCs in radioactive beam heavy-ion collisions.
