Can One Discriminate the Thermal Dilepton Signal Against the Open Charm and Bottom Decay Background in Ultrarelativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions?
In ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions at √s > 20 (120) A GeV a copious production of charm (bottom) production sets in which, via correlated semileptonic DD (BB) decays, gives rise to a dilepton yield at invariant mass M ≈ 2 - 3 GeV in excess of the Drell-Yan yield and the thermal dilepton s...
