Title: Low- p T e + e − Pair Production in Au + Au Collisions at s N N = 200     GeV and U + U Collisions at s N N = 193     GeV at STAR

Abstract

We report first measurements of e+e- pair production in the mass region 0.4 between 40 and 60 MeV/c. The absolute cross section of the excess depends weakly on centrality, while those from a theoretical model calculation incorporating an in-medium broadened ρ spectral function and radiation from a quark gluon plasma or hadronic cocktail contributions increase dramatically with an increasing number of participant nucleons. Model calculations of photon-photon interactions generated by the initial projectile and target nuclei describe the observed excess yields but fail to reproduce the p$$\mathbb 2\atop{T}$$ distributions.

abstractNote = {We report first measurements of e+e- pair production in the mass region 0.4 between 40 and 60 MeV/c. The absolute cross section of the excess depends weakly on centrality, while those from a theoretical model calculation incorporating an in-medium broadened ρ spectral function and radiation from a quark gluon plasma or hadronic cocktail contributions increase dramatically with an increasing number of participant nucleons. Model calculations of photon-photon interactions generated by the initial projectile and target nuclei describe the observed excess yields but fail to reproduce the p$\mathbb 2\atop{T}$ distributions.},
