Photon production from a nonequilibrium quark-gluon plasma

Photon production from a nonequilibrium quark-gluon plasma

We calculate leading-order medium photon yields from a quark-gluon plasma using ($3+1$)-dimensional anisotropic hydrodynamics. Nonequilibrium corrections to the photon rate are taken into account using a self-consistent modification of the particle distribution functions and the corresponding anisotropic hard-loop fermionic self-energies. We present predictions for the high-energy photon spectrum and photon …
