The polarization of thermal dileptons emitted in high-energy heavy-ion collisions
Han Gao, Xiang-Yu Wu, Charles Gale +2
This work presents calculations of thermal dilepton emission and polarization observables. It features a comprehensive framework which comprises virtual photon spectral functions c…
In-plane transverse polarization in heavy-ion collisions
Anum Arslan, Wen-Bo Dong, Charles Gale +3
We give an analytical expression for the in-plane polarization , in heavy-ion collisions that has, to our knowledge, not been measured in heavy-ion collision experiments. We…
Electromagnetic Radiation from Baryon-Rich Matter in Heavy-Ion Collisions
Xiang-Yu Wu, Charles Gale, Sangyong Jeon +3
We perform a study of electromagnetic radiation in heavy-ion collisions at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) Beam Energy Scan (BES) and SPS energies using the iEBE-MUSIC frame…
Electromagnetic radiation from Quark-Gluon Plasma at finite baryon density
Xiang-Yu Wu, Charles Gale, Sangyong Jeon +3
Using the Bayesian calibrated iEBE-MUSIC framework, we compute the production of electromagnetic radiation from hot hadronic matter at finite baryon density. Results for thermal ph…
Thermal dilepton polarization and dynamics of the QCD plasma in relativistic heavy-ion collisions
Xiang-Yu Wu, Han Gao, Bailey Forster +3
We present the first theoretical study of the polarization of lepton pairs produced in TeV Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC, using next-to-leading order (N…
Effects of a background magnetic field on dilepton radiation
Han Gao, Xiang-Yu Wu, Sangyong Jeon +1
We explore the feasibility of using dilepton radiations as a QGP magnetometer. We calculate the dilepton production rate in the presence of a time-dependent magnetic field typicall…
