Identical neutral kaon pair correlations are measured in 7 TeV pp collisions
in the ALICE experiment. K0s-K0s correlation functions are formed in 3
multiplicity X 4 kT bins. The femtoscopic kaon source parameters Rinv and
lambda are extracted from these correlation functions by fitting a (femtoscopy)
X (PYTHIA) model to them, PYTHIA accounting for the non-flat baseline found in
pp collisions. Source parameters are obtained from a fit which includes quantum
statistics and final-state interactions of the a0/f0 resonance. K0s-K0s
correlations show a systematic increase in Rinv for increasing multiplicity bin
and decreasing Rinv for increasing kT bin as seen in pi-pi correlations in the
pp system, as well as seen in heavy-ion collisions. Also, K0s-K0s correlations
are observed to smoothly extend this pi-pi Rinv behavior for the pp system up
to about three times higher kT than the kT range measured in pi-pi
correlations.Comment: Proceedings of the Quark Matter 2011 Conference, 4 pages, 5 figure
