In hadronic Z decays, we compare Bose-Einstein correlations in \Pgpz pairs with those in identical charged pion pairs. We also measure Bose-Einstein correlations in triplets of identical charged pions. From the first study, the source radius is found to be smaller for \Pgpz-\Pgpz than for \Pgppm-\Pgppm, as would be expected, e.g., in a string model. However, the second study shows that the data are consistent with the pion production being completely incoherent. Both studies use data collected by the L3 collaboration at LEP.
