Dilepton production in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions

Abstract

We review the production of lepton pairs during high energy nuclear collisions. We highlight the information being carried out of the hot and dense strongly interacting medium. We describe the phenomenon of scalar-vector mixing that can take place in a dense medium and suggest possible measurable signatures of this effect in high energy heavy ion collisions.
