Abstract
Two-particle small-angle correlations between negative pions and between protons in carbon-carbon collisions atP=4.2 GeV/c per nucleon have been studied, both for an unbiased sample and for “central” events. A comparison of experimental π− π− andpp correlation functions with theoretical predictions has been made. A possible evidence for the existence of two fireballs in C+C interactions atP=4.2 GeV/c per nucleon is presented.
