Abstract
We calculate the dilepton emission rate from a fireball created in an ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collision. For the partonic phase, we complement the perturbative results by a phenomenological approach based on lattice QCD results, whereas in the hadronic phase temperature and finite baryon density effects on the spectral function are considered. The resulting rates are compared to data from CERES/NA45.
