Can transport peak explain the low-mass enhancement of dileptons at RHIC?
We propose a novel relation between the low-mass enhancement of dielectrons
observed at PHENIX and transport coefficients of QGP such as the charge
diffusion constant and the relaxation time . We parameterize
the transport peak in the spectral function using the second-order relativistic
dissipative hydrodynamics by Israel and Stewart. Combining the spectral
function and the full (3+1)-dimensional hydrodynamical evolution with the
lattice EoS, theoretical dielectron spectra and the experimental data are
compared. Detailed analysis suggests that the low-mass dilepton enhancement
originates mainly from the high-temperature QGP phase where there is a large
electric charge fluctuation as obtained from lattice QCD simulations.Comment: To appear in the conference proceedings for Quark Matter 2011, May 23
