Bounds for Bose-Einstein Correlation Functions

Abstract

Bounds for the correlation functions of identical bosons are discussed for the general case of a Gaussian density matrix. In particular, for a purely chaotic system the two-particle correlation function must always be greater than one. On the other hand, in the presence of a coherent component the correlation function may take values below unity. The experimental situation is briefly discussed.
