Probing Chiral Symmetry Restoration with Heavy Ions
arXiv:nucl-th/9806039
Abstract
It is discussed how chiral symmetry restoration manifests itself through mixing of vector and axial-vector correlators. The vector correlator is directly accessible in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Within models of the vector correlator its implications for low-mass dilepton spectra are reviewed.
