Jet-dilepton conversion in expanding quark-gluon plasma

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We calculate the production of large mass dileptons from the jet-dilepton conversion in the expanding quark-gluon plasma at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies. The jet-dilepton conversion exceeds the thermal dilepton production and Drell-Yan process in the large mass region of 3.9 GeV<M<<M<5.8 GeV and 6.3 GeV<M<<M<8.7 GeV in central Pb+Pb collisions at sNN\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76 TeV and 5.5 TeV, respectively. We present the numerical solution of ideal fluid hydrodynamics. We find that the transverse flow leads to a rapid cooling of the fire ball. The suppression due to transverse flow is appeared from small to large mass, the transverse flow effect becomes important at LHC energies. The energy loss of jets in the hot and dense medium is also included.
