Description

Bose-Einstein correlations of two identically charged Q bosons are derived considering these particles to be confined in finite volumes. Boundary effects on single Q-boson spectrum are also studied. We illustrate the effects on the spectrum and on the two-Q-boson correlation function by means of two toy models. We also derive a generalized expression for the Wigner function depending on the deformation parameter Q, which is reduced to its original functional form in the limit of Q→1
