Lattice QCD estimate of the quark-gluon plasma photon emission rate
Lattice QCD estimate of the quark-gluon plasma photon emission rate
We present a computation of the photon emission rate of the quark-gluon plasma from two-flavor lattice QCD at a temperature of 254 MeV, which follows up on the work presented in [1]. We perform a continuum extrapolation of the vector-current correlator, and consider a linear combination of the Lorentz indices …
