Intermediate-Mass Dileptons at the CERN-SPS and RHIC

The significance of thermal dilepton radiation at intermediate invariant masses (1GeV<M<3GeV) in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is investigated. At CERN-SpS energies, a consistent explanation of the excess observed by NA50 can be given. At RHIC energies the thermal signal is dominated...

description The significance of thermal dilepton radiation at intermediate invariant masses (1GeV<M<3GeV) in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is investigated. At CERN-SpS energies, a consistent explanation of the excess observed by NA50 can be given. At RHIC energies the thermal signal is dominated by early emission indicative for QGP formation. Chemical under-saturation effects and the competition with open-charm contributions are addressed.
