Interferometry correlations in central p+Pb collisions

Abstract We present results on interferometry correlations for pions emitted in central p+Pb collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02~\hbox {TeV}$$ sNN=5.02TeV in a $$3+1$$ 3+1 -dimensional viscous hydrodynamic model with initial conditions from the Glauber Monte Carlo model. The correlation function is c...

Description
Summary:Abstract We present results on interferometry correlations for pions emitted in central p+Pb collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02~\hbox {TeV}$$ sNN=5.02TeV in a $$3+1$$ 3+1 -dimensional viscous hydrodynamic model with initial conditions from the Glauber Monte Carlo model. The correlation function is calculated as a function of the pion pair rapidity. The extracted interferometry radii show a weak rapidity dependence, reflecting the lack of boost invariance of the pion distribution. A cross term between the out and long directions is found to be nonzero. The results obtained in the hydrodynamic model are in fair agreement with recent data of the ATLAS Collaboration.
