Abstract

For a set of N identical massive boson wave packets with optimal initial quantum mechanical localization, we calculate the Hanbury-Brown-Twiss (HBT) two-particle correlation function. Our result provides an algorithm for calculating one-particle spectra and two-particle correlations from an arbitrary phase space occupation (q(i),p(i),t(i))(i=1,N) as, e.g., returned by event generators. It is a microscopic derivation of the result of the coherent state formalism, providing explicit finite multiplicity corrections. Both the one-and two-particle spectra depend explicitly on the initial wave packet width sigma which parametrizes the quantum mechanical wave packet localization. They provide upper and lower bounds which suggest that a realistic value for cr has the order of the Compton wavelength.
