  This work addresses the origins and the effects of the statistical dependence in non-Gaussian beam distributions with the ultimate goal to identify the most representative case for tracking simulations across the CERN accelerator complex. Starting from the observation that non-Gaussian heavy-tailed transverse beam profiles can be reconstructed from 4D phase space distributions under two different conditions (statistical independence or dependence in the x-y plane), we consider space charge dominated beams interacting with the lattice nonlinear resonances to perform measurements to study the mechanisms that lead to non-Gaussian distributions. Finally, we explore the beam dynamics implications of the above hypotheses in terms of dependent loss processes across the transverse planes.
