Description

The intensive synchrotron radiation resulting from the quarks interacting with a collective confining color field in the heavy ion collisions is discussed. The spectrum of hard photons is presented and is compared with experimental data showing a feasibility of this magnetic bremsstrahlung-like radiation. The study of the predicted early specific anisotropy in the angle distribution of leptons with respect to the three-momentum of pair is suggested as a way to select this mechanism among other sources of direct photons and dileptons and to probe the confinement properties.
