Dilepton production in an expanding baryon-rich quark-gluon fireball

From the full stopping scenario, the dilepton production in a baryon-rich quark-gluon fireball has been studied based on a relativistic hydrodynamic model. Due to the influence of the phase boundary on the evolution of the system, the quark phase gives the dominant contribution to the dilepton spectrum. In particular, with increasing initial baryon density, the total dilepton yield first rapidly rises when the initial hadronic system goes to the initial quark system, then goes down owing to the suppression of the dilepton production, thus making a characteristic peak signaling the formation of the baryon-rich quark-gluon matter which appears in the total yield. These characteristics can be tested in future experiments at CERN and Brookhaven.
