Abstract: (Elsevier)
The measurement of correlations between like pions in the inclusive processes a + b → π ± + π ± + X permits us to study the space-time mechanism of multiple production. Similar measurements for neutrons evaporated from highly excited nuclei give the shape of nuclei and their mean lives; for pions from the resonance decay - the mean resonance life.
