Correlations and Fluctuations at RHIC
Abstract
Particle correlations and fluctuations measured by RHIC experiments at sNN=130 GeV were discussed. The source size parameters were similar to those measured at the CERN-SPS, and no long duration time of particle emission were observed. It was pointed out that the dependences of longitudinal and transverse radius parameters on the pair momentum are explained with a single mT scaling function observed at the SPS energy. Fluctuation studies of mean pT of charged particles and of mean ET in an electromagnetic calorimeter found no significant non-statistical fluctuations by PHENIX, but some indication in charge independent <pT> by STAR.
