Resolving the Hanbury Brown–Twiss Puzzle in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

Two particle correlation data from the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider have provided detailed femtoscopic information describing pion emission. In contrast with the success of hydrodynamics in reproducing other classes of observables, these data had avoided description with hydrodynamic-based approaches. This failure has inspired the term ``HBT puzzle,'' where HBT …
