Phys. Rev. C 51, 3489–3491 (1995)Space-time ambiguity of two- and three-fragment reduced velocity correlation functionsReceived 31 October 1994; published in the issue dated June 1995 Reduced-velocity correlation functions between two and three intermediate mass fragments are compared for central 36Ar+197Ar collisions at E/A=50 MeV. Previously published N-body Coulomb-trajectory calculations, capable of reproducing the measured two-fragment reduced velocity-correlation function, describe the measured three-fragment correlation function equally well. Moreover, ambiguities between source size and lifetime observed in the analysis of two-fragment correlations remain unresolved in the three-fragment correlation function. © 1995 The American Physical Society URL:
