We propose a particle production mechanism analogous to the particle photoproduction processes, arising from the gluon-nucleon interactions in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The comparison is made on the effect of the gluon-nucleon…
We discuss three different cases of hard inclusive spectra in proton-proton collisions: high $p_T$ single hadron production at $\sqrt{s}\approx$ 20 GeV and at $\sqrt{s}$ = 62.4 GeV, and direct photon production at $\sqrt{s}$ = 200 GeV; with…
The production of electron pairs with transverse momentum between 1 and 5 GeV/c and m< 300 MeV has been measured at mid-rapidity in 200 GeV p+p and Au+Au collisions by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC. A significant excess above the hadronic…
A brief survey is given on the current status of evaluating thermal production of photons from a strongly interacting medium. Emphasis is put on recent progress in assessing equilibrium emission rates in both hadronic and quark-gluon…
We use a boost-invariant one-dimensional (cylindrically symmetric) fluid dynamics code to calculate thermal photon production in the central rapidity region of S+Au and Pb+Pb collisions at SPS energy ($\sqrt{s}=20$ GeV/nucleon). We assume…
Electromagnetic probes such as direct photons and dileptons are crucial to study the properties of a Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) created in heavy ion collisions. Based on the (3+1)-dimensional event-by-event viscous hydrodynamic model EPOS…
The PHENIX collaboration presents first measurements of low-momentum ($0.4<p_T<3$ GeV/$c$) direct-photon yields from Au$+$Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}$=39 and 62.4 GeV. For both beam energies the direct-photon yields are substantially…
Direct photon produced from first proton-neutron ($p$-$n$) collision during the early stage of heavy ion reaction is a sensitive probe to reflect energy and momentum distribution of nucleons. In this work, we embedded the hard photon…
The measurement of the direct photon transverse momentum spectrum in Pb-Pb collisions at \unit[$\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=2.76]{TeV}$ with data taken by the ALICE experiment is presented. The measurement shows a clear direct-photon signal for 0-40%…
We calculate the production of real photons in relativistic nuclear collisions at RHIC, consistently with the quenching of fast partons. We go beyond one-body observables, and evaluate photon-triggered fragmentation functions, in the…
In this contribution the latest measurements of real and virtual photons in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV from the ALICE Collaboration are presented. The extracted photon spectra are compared to predictions from…
The elliptic flow of inclusive and direct photons was measured at mid-rapidity in two centrality classes 0-20% and 20-40% in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV by ALICE. Photons were detected with the highly segmented…
It is believed that a novel state of matter - Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) will be transiently produced if normal hadronic matter is subjected to sufficiently high temperature and/or density. We have investigated the possibility of QGP…
Heavy ion collisions at RHIC produce direct photons at low transverse momentum, $p_{T}$ from 1-3 GeV/c, in excess of the $p$$+$$p$ spectra scaled by the nuclear overlap factor, $T_{AA}$. These low $p_{T}$ photons have a large azimuthal…
The ATLAS detector at the LHC is capable of efficiently separating photons and neutral hadrons based on their shower shapes over a wide range in eta, phi, ET, either in addition to or instead of isolation cuts. This provides ATLAS with a…
We calculate the centrality dependence of direct photons produced in Au+Au collisions at sqrt{s}=200GeV and their transverse momentum spectra within the Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach. As sources for 'direct'…
In-medium interactions of a particle in a hot plasma are considered in the framework of thermal field theory. The formalism to calculate gauge invariant rates for photon and dilepton production from the medium is given. In the application…
Measurement of neutral pions and direct photons are closely connected experimentally, on the other hand they probe quite different aspects of relativistic heavy ion collisions. In this short review of the $\pi^0$ results from the PHENIX…
The anisotropic emission of direct photons from Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200 GeV was calculated using a (3+1)-dimensional viscous hydrodynamic model with the impact parameter Glasma initial condition. The transverse momentum…
We update our calculations of thermal-photon production in nuclear collisions at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC). Specifically, we address the recent experimental observation of an elliptic flow of direct photons comparable in…
