Deskripsi
We report the measurements of e+e- pair production at very low e+e- pair transverse momentum (pT < 0.15 GeV/c) in Au+Au collisions at sNN = 200 GeV and U+U collisions at sNN = 193 GeV using the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. In 60-80% centrality, significant excesses are observed with respect to hadronic cocktails in both Au+Au and U+U collisions. These excess yields can not be explained by a theoretical model calculation incorporating in-medium broadened ρ spectral function. Additionally, the pT2 distribution for excess yield is shown and found to be exponential at very low pT.
