Abstract

For a study of the influence of known quantum mechanical effects as well as of detector effects on the intermittency patterns observed in nucleus-nucleus collisions, the Fritiof Monte Carlo program hasbeen modified. Bose-Einstein (BE) correlations were introduced as a final state interaction between two particles. For a realistic strength of the BE effect as measured in heavy ion collisions, a good description of the bin size dependence of the normalized factorial moments in the distributions of secondary particles in OAu NA 35 data is observed. The p t dependence of the normalized factorial moments, and the low p t enhancement in the single particle p t spectra, caused by BE correlation, are discussed.
