Dilepton production in heavy-ion collisions: a probe of deconfinement

The study of dilepton production plays a fundamental role in our understanding of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion physics. In this short review, I will address the main topics presently under study at SPS and RHIC energies, with an emphasis on heavy quarkonia and open charm production. (1 refs).
