Correlation femtoscopy for studying the η meson production mechanism — •Pawel Klaja — Jagellonian University, Kraków, Poland

Recently the COSY-11 collaboration has taken high statistics data for the pp → ppη reaction [1]. These data are presently evaluated using the method, commonly referred to as correlation femtoscopy [2]. This technique, based on the correlation function of the two protons, permits to determine the size of the source from which protons are emitted.
We will present a comparison of experimental results extracted with theoretical predictions.
The experimental correlation function has been evaluated including the background subtraction and acceptance correction for the COSY-11 detection setup.
The analysis procedure will be introduced and the obtained results will be discussed in context of the investigation of the dynamics of the η meson production via the nucleon-nucleon interaction.
