Dimuonium $(μ^+μ^-)$ Production in a Quark-Gluon Plasma    [PDF]

Yibiao Chen, Pengfei Zhuang
We study dimuonium $(\mu^+\mu^-)$ production in the quark-gluon plasma created in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The production is controlled by the process $q\bar q\rightarrow (\mu^+\mu^-)g$, and the dimuonium motion in the plasma is described by a transport equation. While the electrodynamics dominated dimuonium yield is not high enough, the transverse energy distribution carries the information of the plasma at RHIC and LHC energies.
