Abstract A quantum statistical approach to simulate Bose-Einstein correlations of many boson systems is presented. The extension to fermions and Coulomb-interacting bosons is discussed. This approach appears to be very efficient and is applicable also to cases with very high multiplicities. A technique to analyze pion correlations via their counting distributions is developed. The exact counting distributions for bosons as well as for fermions are derived. The problem of incomplete data occuring in detectors with an acceptance angleΩ 〈 4π is studied. The application to Monte Carlo generated pion distributions show that this technique offers a valuable supplement to the usual Hanbury-Brown, Twiss method.
