17.8.2004I. Aracena7 BEC in ep neutral current DIS at HERA Motivation : In DIS the production volume may depend on the virtuality of the exchanged photon. Study differences of BEC between the current and the target regions. Studies performed in the Breit frame: momentum of the exchanged photon q = (0,0,0,−Q γ = −2xP Breit ) Allows separation of outgoing struck quark from the proton remnant No significant difference between the BE effects in the current and the target regions.

17.8.2004I. Aracena8 Multidimensional BEC analyses The standard parameterisation of the three-dimensional BEC function is: Longitudinal Centre-Of-Mass System (LCMS): Is defined as the coordinate system in which the momentum sum of the two particles is perpendicular to the event axis. Is the coordinate system used in multidimensional BEC studies. Motivation Test predictions of the Lund string model (M. Ringner, B. Andersson, Phys. Lett. B421: 1998, 283): The longitudinal size of the boson source is bigger than the transverse one in the string fragmentation model

17.8.2004I. Aracena14 Conclusions BEC and FDC have been studied in various particle species at LEP and HERA. BEC and FDC have been studied in various particle species at LEP and HERA. ♦The measured correlation radius depends on the mass of the particle. It turns out the correlation radius measured in baryon pairs is smaller than the correlation radius measured in meson pairs. ♦In DIS the BEC parameters are the same in the current and target region and they are insensitive to. Multidimensional analyses of BEC in charged pion pairs have been published by the four LEP experiments and the ZEUS collaboration at HERA. Multidimensional analyses of BEC in charged pion pairs have been published by the four LEP experiments and the ZEUS collaboration at HERA. ♦An elongation, R T /R L <1, as predicted by the Lund string model, is measured by all collaborations. ♦The measured elongation depends on the choice of the reference sample. ♦The correlation radii measured at HERA are independent of the virtuality of the exchanged photon,, in the range 0.1< <8000GeV 2. Correlations between particles from hadronic WW decays have been measured by the four LEP experiments. Correlations between particles from hadronic WW decays have been measured by the four LEP experiments. ♦DELPHI finds a signal for inter-W BEC at the 2.4σ level. The other three experiments find no indication for inter-W BEC.
