We find that the phase space density is connected with the two-particles and the single particle density distribution functions. If the boson density is large, the two particles density distribution function can not be expressed as a product of two single particle density distributions. However, if the boson density is so small that two particles density distribution function can be expressed as a product of two single particle density distributions, then Bertsch's formula is recovered. For a Gaussian model, the effects of multi-particles Bose-Einstein correlations on the mean phase space density are studied.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-08-29T01:09:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "heavy-ion collisions", "phase space density", "particles density distribution function", "phase-space density", "single particle density distribution functions" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 626883 } } }
