Dileptons are considered to be an important observable, in the context of studying the characteristics of the deconfined phase of quark gluon plasma (QGP). Historically, the dilepton production rates (DPR) from the QGP have been studied using two different approaches. In the quantum field theory (QFT) approach, the DPR is expressed in terms of the thermal expectation value of the...
