High energy photons from passage of jets through quark gluon plasma

arXiv:nucl-th/0208001 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.90.132301

Abstract

We calculate the production of high energy photons from Compton scattering and annihilation of a quark jet passing through a quark gluon plasma produced in a relativistic heavy ion collision. The contributions are large and reflect the momentum distribution of the jets and the initial conditions of the plasma.
