We investigate the production of direct photons in heavy ion collisions within the modified bottom-up thermalization scenario, which we show to be related to the thermalizing Glasma framework. The dynamics of the parton system up to…

By including Klein-Nishina effects, we generalize previous calculations of the beaming pattern of photons produced by inverse Compton scattering. For an isotropic distribution of soft photons upscattered by nonthermal electrons with a…
