We use a simple QCD-based model to study particle production in S+Au collisions at 200 GeV/n. A requisite consistency is met for the hadronic observables (pi0 and pi- spectra) while pursuing estimates for e+e- production. Since radiative…
Dilepton and photon production in heavy-ion collisions at SPS energies are studied in the relativistic transport model that incorporates self-consistently the change of hadron masses in dense matter. It is found that the dilepton spectra in…
