41 Summary n Azimuthal HBT radii w.r.t nd order event plane ² Final eccentricity increases with increasing m T, but not enough to explain the difference between π/k. Difference may indicate faster freeze-out of K ± due to less cross section. ² Relative amplitude of R out in -% doesn t depend on m T. It may indicate the difference of emission duration between in-plane and out-of-plane. n Azimuthal HBT radii w.r.t 3 rd -order event plane ² R side doesn t seem to have azimuthal dependence. ² While R out clearly has finite oscillation in most central collisions. It may indicate the difference of emission duration between Δφ= /6 direction or depth of the triangular shape. n Balst wave model Takafumi Niida, TAC seminar, Dec., 1 ² System lifetime and emission duration seems to get longer in central collisions. 41
