Particle Correlations

Particle correlations provide crucial insights into the properties of strongly interacting matter, offering a window into the space-time evolution of heavy-ion collisions and the underlying nuclear Equation of State (EoS). My research on this topic was conducted within the HADES experiment, where I explored correlations between particles to study the behavior of nuclear matter under extreme conditions. This work was supported by the prestigious Humboldt Fellowship and encompassed both experimental measurements and theoretical interpretations.

On the experimental side, I analyzed correlation functions to extract information about the emission source and final-state interactions. In parallel, I contributed to theoretical descriptions, working on models that connect correlation observables with fundamental properties of the nuclear medium. These studies provided valuable constraints on the EoS, helping to bridge the gap between experiment and theory.
