Abstract

The paper presents studies of Bose–Einstein Correlations (BEC) for pairs of like-sign charged particles measured in the kinematic range pT > 100 MeV and |η| <2.5 in proton–proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 0.9 and 7
TeV with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron
Collider. The integrated luminosities are approximately 7
μb−1, 190 μb−1 and 12.4 nb-1 for 0.9 TeV,7 TeV minimum-bias and 7 TeV high-multiplicity data samples, respectively. The multiplicity dependence of the BEC parameters characterizing the correlation strength and the correlation source size are investigated for charged-particle multiplicities of up to 240. A saturation effect in the multiplicity dependence of the correlation source size parameter is observed using the high-multiplicity 7 TeV
data sample. The dependence of the BEC parameters on the average transverse momentum of the particle pair is also investigated.
