Description
Correlations of positive pions are investigated in the target fragmentation region of 200 A GeV 16O + nucleus collisions. The pions are measured with the Plastic Ball detectors in the WA80 experiment at the CERN SPS. The detailed behaviour of the fitted parameters on rapidity, centrality and the number of spectator nucleons is studied. The data indicate a large source in central O + Au collisions for ylab ≤ 0. The observations are compatible with a substantial amount of rescattering in the target. (orig.)
