Description
The PHENIX experiment measured two-particle Bose- Einstein quantum-statistical correlations of charged kaons in Au+Au collisions $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV collision. The correlation functions are parametrized assuming that the source emitting the particles has a Lévy-shaped characterized by the $\alpha$ Lévy exponent and the $R$ Lévy scale. By introducing the $\lambda$ intercept parameter we account for the core-halo fraction. The parameters are investigated as the function of transverse mass. The comparison of the parameters measured for charged kaons to those measured from pion-pion correlation may clarify the connection of Lévy parameters to physical processes.
