Abstract
Bose-Einstein correlation functions are measured using the E877 appara tus in 11.4 A GeV/c Au+Au central collisions (0-4% sigma/sigma(geom)) at the AGS at BNL. pi(+)pi(+) and pi(-)pi(-) correlations are measured in varying pair averaged rapidity and transverse momentum bins, white the K+K+ correlation is measured in only one bin, the pair's full acc eptance bin, due to limited statistics. Finite source size Coulomb cor rections are applied to all measured correlations to isolate only the Bose-Einstein statistics effect. Additionally model correlations are c alculated using RQMD(v2.3) cascade code coupled with the Koonin-Pratt code which imposes statistical and final state interaction weights to the pairs and compared to data.
