We present a study of $\tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ lepton pair production in Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 5.5 TeV. The larger $\tau^{\pm}$ mass ($\sim$ 1.77 GeV) compared to $e^{\pm}$ and $\mu^{\pm}$ leads to considerably small hadronic…

Dileptons are considered as one of the cleanest signals of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), however, the QGP radiation is masked by many 'background' sources from either hadronic decays or semileptonic decays from correlated charm pairs. In…
