Description
We study the effect of magnetic field on the photon emission
from the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) in AA collisions at RHIC and LHC energies.
We develop a formalism for photon radiation from the QGP
which accounts for interplay of the synchrotron mechanism and
the photon emission due to multiple scattering.
We show that multiple scattering suppresses strongly the
synchrotron contribution. Our numerical calculations
show that, contrary to the previous qualitative calculations
(K. Tuchin, Phys.Rev. C91 (2015), 014902) the effect of magnetic field on the photon emission in AA collisions for the RHIC and LHC conditions is very small.
