Abstract

The application of the Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac interferometry to multi-hadron final states of particle reactions is reviewed. The underlying theoretical concepts of particle interferometry is presented where a special emphasis is given to the recently proposed Fermi-Dirac correlation analysis. The experimental tools used for the interferometry analyses and the interpretation of their results are discussed in some details. In particular the interpretation of the dimension , as measured from the interferometry analysis, is investigated and compared to that measured in heavy-ion collisions. Finally the similarity between the dependence of on the hadron mass and the interatomic separation on the atomic mass in Bose condensates is outlined.
