Two-mode squeezed states in high energy physics

Abstract

We discuss the possibility to observe hadron modification in hot and dense matter via the correlation of identical particles. We find that a modification of hadronic masses in medium leads to two-mode squeezing which signals itself in a back-to-back correlations of hadrons. This effect leads to a signal of a shift of $\varphi$-meson mass.
