The effects of two kinds of coherent lengths, the wavepacket length of
the emitter and the radius of the coherent source, on the pion spectr
um distribution are studied. It is shown that both coherent lengths ca
n cause abundant pions at low momentum, but the disoriented chiral con
densate (DCC) size effects on the pion spectrum distribution are more
important. Therefore, observing abundant pions at low momentum may be
taken as a signal of DCC effects.
