Description
Dilepton production has been proposed as one of the most promising observables to study QCD matter at extreme conditions. We review some of the main theoretical and experimental results of dilepton production in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. We concentrate on dilepton emission from partonic as well as from the hadronic sources. We briefly comment about the status of theoretical calculations compared with available experimental data.
