Description
Two problems important for the HBT method are discussed. The
relation of the measured momentum distributions
to theWigner function of the final hadrons and the relation of this
Wigner function to the emission function. It is found that for the
profile of each homogeneity region all the even cumulants and no odd
cumulant can be unambiguously measured. Moreover,
if the centers of all the homogeneity regions are known, the profile of
all the interaction region can be unambiguously measured.
Obtaining further information about the emission function requires
additional assumptions. A few important cases are discussed.
