Abstract
Small-angle two-particle correlation functions, involving neutrons and protons, have been measured for E/A = 61 MeV Ar + Sn-112,Sn-124 collisions, i.e. systems similar in size but with different isospin asymmetry. The correlation strength of neutron-proton (np) and proton-proton (pp) pairs is stronger for the more neutron-rich system, indicating a shorter average emission time for this system. Comparisons with isospin-dependent BUU transport model simulations are presented, and their implications for the density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy are discussed.
