Dilepton production at intermediate energies with in-medium spectral functions of vector mesons
arXiv:0811.2065 · doi:10.1016/j.ppnp.2008.12.023
Abstract
We report on a self-consistent calculation of the in-medium spectral functions of the rho and omega mesons at finite baryon density. The corresponding in-medium dilepton spectrum is generated and compared with HADES data. We find that an iterative calculation of the vector meson spectral functions provides a reasonable description of the experimental data.
