An energy sum constraint of event mixing for Bose-Einstein correlations in reactions with ππX final states around 1 GeV

  • We present a new event mixing technique for measuring two-pion Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) in reactions with only two identical bosons among three final state particles. This new mixing method contains a missing mass consistency (MMC) cut and an energy sum order (ESO) cut. Unlike the previous proposed pion energy cut, which abandons nearly half the original events, the ESO cut does not eliminate any original events and hence improves the statistics of both original events and mixed events. Numerical tests using the γp→π0π0p events around 1 GeV are carried out to verify the validity of the ESO cut. This cut is able to reproduce the relative momentum distribution of the original events in the absence of BEC effects. In addition, its ability to observe BEC effects is tested by an event sample in the presence of BEC effects. Simulation results show the BEC effects can be observed clearly as an enhancement in the correlation function, and the BEC parameters extracted by this event mixing cut are consistent with the input BEC parameters.

Abstract: We present a new event mixing technique for measuring two-pion Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) in reactions with only two identical bosons among three final state particles. This new mixing method contains a missing mass consistency (MMC) cut and an energy sum order (ESO) cut. Unlike the previous proposed pion energy cut, which abandons nearly half the original events, the ESO cut does not eliminate any original events and hence improves the statistics of both original events and mixed events. Numerical tests using the γp→π0π0p events around 1 GeV are carried out to verify the validity of the ESO cut. This cut is able to reproduce the relative momentum distribution of the original events in the absence of BEC effects. In addition, its ability to observe BEC effects is tested by an event sample in the presence of BEC effects. Simulation results show the BEC effects can be observed clearly as an enhancement in the correlation function, and the BEC parameters extracted by this event mixing cut are consistent with the input BEC parameters.
