Dimuonium (μ+μ−)(μ^+μ^-) Production in a Quark-Gluon Plasma

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study dimuonium (μ+μ−)(μ^+μ^-) production in the quark-gluon plasma created in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The production is controlled by the process qqˉ→(μ+μ−)gq\bar q\rightarrow (μ^+μ^-)g, and the dimuonium motion in the plasma is described by a transport equation. While the electrodynamics dominated dimuonium yield is not high enough, the transverse energy distribution carries the information of the plasma at RHIC and LHC energies.
