Experimental data on two-particle rapidity correlations of charged particles produced in 40-GeV/c ..pi../sup -/n interactions are presented. The behavior of the correlation functions R (y/sub 1/*,y/sub 2/*) and C (y/sub 1/*,y/sub 2/*) indicates the presence of close correlations in the central region. Study of the azimuthal correlations revealed correlations in the ..pi../sup -/..pi../sup -/ systems due to particle identity. Experimental data on the azimuthal correlations of ..gamma pi../sup -/ and ..gamma pi../sup +/ systems in pion-nucleon interactions are also presented. The experimental data are compared with the results of phase-space and multiperipheral-model calculations.
