Bose-Einstein correlations between like-sign pions have been investigated in e+e− annihilation at √s =29 GeV using the Time Projection Chamber detector at the SLAC e+e− storage ring PEP. The production rate of like-sign pion pairs with small relative momentum is found to be increased by more than 50% over the rate expected for uncorrelated production of pions. From the correlation length, a typical source radius of 0.65 fm is derived. Data are consistent with a spherical shape of the pion source. No dependence of radius or correlation strength on the event multiplicity is observed.

We measured the cross sections of hadron pair production (π, K, p) with symmetric momenta produced back-to-back in the c.m.s. in pp collisions in the range 0.45 ⩽ P T ⩽ 1.99 GeV/ c . Particle correlations showing dependence on quantum numbers and transverse momentum are presented. The data are discussed in the framework of parton models.

The invariant cross-section slope of the pp→ π + π − +X process as a function of p T is found to have a break near 1 GeV/ c . Fitting the cross section by a sum of two exponents gives the values of powers (12.3±0.9)(GeV/ c ) −1 and (8.7±0.6)(GeV/ c ) −1 . The experimental points at p T ⩾1 GeV/ c are significantly higher than predictions based on hard scattering models such as QCD and CIM.
