Direct photons ~basis for characterizing heavy ion collisions~

Nuclear Experiment 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

After years of experimental and theoretical efforts, direct photons become a strong and reliable tool to establish the basic characteristics of a hot and dense matter produced in heavy ion collisions. The recent direct photon measurements are reviewed and a future prospect is given.
