Imaging source function vs 3D HBT source function
Discrepancy for r>20fm Corresponds to q<10MeV
30% more pions in tail above 3D HBT Gaussian source

Conclusions
First 3D source imaging analysis at SPS: Low pT (0<pT<70MeV/c) pion moments in central sqrt_s=17.3AGeV Pb+Pb events indicate:
Prominent non-Gaussian tails in source image in longitudinal and outward directions @ sqrt_s=17.3AGeV
Less prominent tails at lower beam energies 3D source function well described by 2-Gaussian function in good
agreement with source image 3D source image at sqrt_s=17.3AGeV in agreement with Therminator
Blast-Wave calculations with tau=7.3fm/c, Δtau=3.7fm/c 3D source image at sqrt_s=200AGeV gives tau=8.5fm/c, Δtau=2fm/c
Exponential tail in long direction:
(1) verification of details of 3D dynamics (2) critical signature of blast-wave dynamics for longitudinal flow Scott Pratt PRD 33, 5, 1314-1327 (1986)
