Levy distributions for one-dimensional analysis of the Bose-Einstein   correlations
  A general study of relations between the parameters of two centrally-symmetric Levy distributions, often used for one-dimensional investigation of Bose - Einstein correlations, is given for the first time. These relations of the strength of correlations and of the radius of the emission region take into account possible various finite ranges of the Lorentz invariant four-momentum difference for two centrally-symmetric Levy distributions. In particular, special cases of the relations are investigated for Cauchy and normal (Gaussian) distributions. The mathematical formalism is verified using the recent measurements given a generalized centrally-symmetric Levy distribution is used. The reasonable agreement is observed between estimations and experimental results for all available types of strong interaction processes and collision energies.
