Thermal photons at PHENIX experiment
Direct photons are a unique probe to study the properties of the medium created in heavy ion collisions. In particular low pT direct photons are of great importance since one expects that they are predominantly of thermal origin. In A+A systems PHENIX has observed a large yield of low pT direct phot...
