Kinematics and dynamics of independent pion emission - art. no. 027902

Multiparticle boson states, proposed recently for "independently" emitted p ions in heavy-ion collisions, are reconsidered in standard second quantized formalism and shown to emerge from a simplistic chaotic current dynamics. Compact equations relate the density operator, the generating functional of multiparticle counts, and the correlator of the external current to each o ther. "Bose-Einstein condensation" is related to the external pulse. A quan tum master equation is advocated for future Monte Carlo simulations.
