Refractive Distortions of Two-Particle Correlations from Classical Trajectory Calculations

Abstract

Calculations of two-particle correlations usually assume particles interact only pair-wise after their final collisions with third bodies. By considering classical trajectories, we show that interactions with the mean field can alter the spatial dimensions of the outgoing phase-space-density profiles by tens of percent, consistent with more complicated quantum complications.
