Dilepton production rate calculation using MEQM in heavy-ion collision

Abstract

It is established that a strong magnetic field is generated along with quark–gluon plasma in heavy-ion collision. This unique scenario offers an opportunity to study and analyze the impact of the magnetic field on the evolution of the plasma. We calculate the dilepton yield from quark–gluon plasma in a magnetic environment by considering a suitably modified magnetized effective quark mass (MEQM). Further, we study the dilepton yield for different values of magnetic field and different values of chemical potential with MEQM. The results obtained are very encouraging and we compare it with recently reported theoretical results.
