Probing $\Omega\Omega$ and $p\Omega$ dibaryons with femtoscopic correlations in relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Understand

The momentum correlation functions of baryon pairs, which reflects the baryon-baryon interaction at low energies, are investigated for multi-strangeness pairs ($\Omega\Omega$ and $N\Omega$) produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.

• We calculate the correlation functions based on an expanding source model constrained by single-particle distributions.
• The interaction potentials are taken from those obtained from recent lattice QCD calculations at nearly physical quark masses.
• Experimental measurements of these correlation functions for different system sizes will help to disentangle the strong interaction between baryons and to unravel the possible existence of strange dibaryons.
