Thermal photon production rate from non-equilibrium quantum field theory
arXiv:hep-ph/9704262 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.56.2548
Abstract
In the framework of closed time path thermal field theory we investigate the production rate of hard thermal photons from a QCD plasma away from equilibrium. Dynamical screening provides a finite rate for chemically non-equilibrated distributions of quarks and gluons just as it does in the equilibrium situation. Pinch singularities are shown to be absent in the real photon rate even away from equilibrium.
