In http://archives.devshed.com/forums/java-118/giving-different-boost-to-different-terms-in-a-same-document-2109816.html Erick quotes Hoss as saying
Index time field boosts are a way to express things like "this documents title is worth twice as much as the title of most documents". Query time boosts are a way to express "I care about matches on this clause of my query twice as much as I do about matches to other clauses of my query". I've added this to the FAQ at http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/LuceneFAQ But I don't know why your code isn't doing what you want. Maybe you are boosting the wrong query, or need a different boost value, or need doc.setBoost() instead. -- Ian.
