Low Mass Thermal Dilepton Production at NLO in a Weakly Coupled Quark-Gluon Plasma
Jacopo Ghiglieri, Guy D. Moore
We present a computation, within weakly-coupled thermal QCD, of the production rate of low invariant mass () dileptons, at next-to-leading order (NLO) in the coup…
Production and Elliptic Flow of Dileptons and Photons in the semi-Quark Gluon Plasma
C. Gale, Y. Hidaka, S. Jeon +6
We consider the thermal production of dileptons and photons at temperatures above the critical temperature in QCD. We use a model where color excitations are suppressed by a small…
Nonabelian dark matter models for 3.5 keV X-rays
James M. Cline, Andrew R. Frey
A recent analysis of XXM-Newton data reveals the possible presence of an X-ray line at approximately 3.55 keV, which is not readily explained by known atomic transitions. Numerous…
Studying the validity of relativistic hydrodynamics with a new exact solution of the Boltzmann equation
Gabriel S. Denicol, Ulrich W. Heinz, Mauricio Martinez +2
We present an exact solution to the Boltzmann equation which describes a system undergoing boost-invariant longitudinal and azimuthally symmetric radial expansion for arbitrary she…
A new exact solution of the relativistic Boltzmann equation and its hydrodynamic limit
Gabriel S. Denicol, Ulrich W. Heinz, Mauricio Martinez +2
We present an exact solution of the relativistic Boltzmann equation for a system undergoing boost-invariant longitudinal and azimuthally symmetric transverse flow ("Gubser flow").…
Theoretical aspects of photon production in high energy nuclear collisions
Jacopo Ghiglieri
A brief overview of the calculation of photon and dilepton production rates in a deconfined quark-gluon plasma is presented. We review leading order rates as well as recent NLO det…
