Phys. Rev. C 54, 1366–1374 (1996)Bremsstrahlung production of low mass dielectrons in relativistic heavy ion collisionsReceived 4 December 1995; published in the issue dated September 1996 The distribution of low mass dielectrons likely to be produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions due to bremsstrahlung processes in quark matter and hadronic matter is obtained. Effort is made to minimize uncertainty and restore Lorentz covariance as compared with past calculations performed in a similar vein. It is found that the excess of dielectrons in S+Au collisions at 200A GeV measured by the CERES Collaboration at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron may have an important contribution from these processes at very low masses. ©1996 The American Physical Society. © 1996 The American Physical Society URL:
