abstract

We discuss the relation between the Koonin-Pratt femtoscopic correlation function (CF) and invariant mass distributions from production experiments. We show that the equivalence is total for a zero source-size and that a Gaussian finite-size source provides a form-factor for the virtual production of the particles. Motivated by this remarkable relationship, we study an alternative method to the Koonin-Pratt formula, which connects the evaluation of the CF directly with the production mechanisms. The differences arise mostly from the $T$-matrix quadratic terms and increase with the source size. We study the case of the $D^0 D^{\ast +}$ and $D^+ D^{\ast 0}$ correlation functions of interest to unravel the dynamics of the exotic $T_ {cc}(3875)^+$, and find that these differences become quite sizable already for 1 fm sources. We nevertheless conclude that the lack of coherence in high-multiplicity-event reactions and in the creation of the fire-ball source that emits the hadrons certainly make much more realistic the formalism based on the Koonin-Pratt equation. We finally derive an improved Lednicky-Lyuboshits (LL) approach, which implements a Lorentz ultraviolet regulator that corrects the pathological behaviour of the LL CF in the punctual source-size limit.

    hep-ph 2026-03 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    Ω(2012) is dynamically generated as a Ξ*K–Ωη molecule; its pole produces pronounced near-threshold structures in the Ξ*0K− correlation function that can be measured at the LHC.

    Optimizing the two Kronecker parameters with irace yields new state-of-the-art L∞ star discrepancy for 3D point sets of size at least 500 and for ranges of sizes.

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The neutron-D_{s1}(2460) and neutron-D_{s1}(2536) systems are predicted to have bound states, with correlation functions sensitive to the molecular structure of the D_{s1} mesons.

    Theoretical predictions show that femtoscopic correlation functions for neutral Σ_c^0 π^- pairs best constrain isotensor strong interactions in charm and bottom sectors, while Coulomb repulsion diminishes discriminati...

  5. Can the strong interactions between hadrons be determined using femtoscopy?

    nucl-th 2025-04 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    The universality assumption in the Koonin-Pratt formula for femtoscopic correlations introduces potentially large intrinsic uncertainty when extracting strong interactions between hadrons like nucleons.
