Abstract
The HBT radius parameters and the HBT λ-parameters of single Gaussian source and double Gaussian source are investigated by using two-pion correlation function in HBT intensity interferometry. It is indicated that the radius parameter is insensitive to the spatial shape of the edge zone of source and is mainly affected by the size of the central zone of pions emitted in high energy heavy-ion collisions. The pions produced at the edge of source influence the λ parameter. The non-Gaus...
