  • Abstract
    We present Hanbury-Brown Twiss measurements from the PHENIX experiment at RHIC for final results for charged kaon pairs from View the MathML source Au+Au collisions and preliminary results for charged pion pairs from View the MathML sourcep+p collisions. We find that for kaon pairs from Au+Au, each traditional 3D Gaussian radius shows approximately the same linear increase as a function of View the MathML source. An imaging analysis reveals a significant non-Gaussian tail for r≳10 fm. The presence of a tail for kaon pairs demonstrates that similar non-Gaussian tails observed in earlier pion measurements cannot be fully explained by decays of long-lived resonances. The preliminary analysis of pions from View the MathML source p+p minimum biased collisions show correlations which are well suited to traditional 3D HBT radii extraction via the Bowler-Sinyukov method, and we present Rout, Rside, and Rlong as a function of mean transverse pair mass.
