HBT Correlators -- Current Formalism vs. Wigner Function Formulation
Scott Chapman, Ulrich Heinz
Abstract
We clarify the relationship between the current formalism developed by Gyulassy, Kaufmann and Wilson and the Wigner function formulation suggested by Pratt for the 2-particle correlator in Hanbury-Brown Twiss interferometry. When applied to a hydrodynamical description of the source with a sharp freeze-out hypersurface, our results remove a slight error in the prescription given by Makhlin and Sinyukov which has led to confusion in the literature.
