Thermal Radiation

Wednesday 2 May 2018, 09:00 → 13:00 Europe/Zurich

- Projections for direct photons (ALICE): currently working on weights to improve systematic uncertainty from material (TPC gas), after that preparing projections for Run 3/4 (using the planned conversion wire)

- Dimuons (ALICE): waiting for new simulations with ALICE-O2 framework (delayed), will most probably not
  be ready for yellow report

- Dielectrons (ALICE): updates expected from fast/full simulation; estimate performance of combined m_ee/p_Tee/DCA_ee fits (instead of subtracting heavy flavour contribution)

- dark photons (ALICE): separate expectations for pp and Pb-Pb, to be discussed also with dark matter chapter?

 

09:00 → 10:00 Yellow report, section thermal radiation: Status report and discussion

Speaker: Michael Weber (Stefan Meyer Institute for Subatomic Physics (SMI), Austrian Academy of Sciences (AT))
