Dimuonium $(μ^+μ^-)$ Production in a Quark-Gluon Plasma

Abstract: We study dimuonium $(\mu<sup>+\mu<sup>-)$ production in the quark-gluon plasma created in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The production is controlled by the process $q\bar q\rightarrow (\mu<sup>+\mu<sup>-)g$, and the dimuonium motion in the plasma is described by a transport equation. While the electrodynamics dominated dimuonium yield is not high enough, the transverse energy distribution carries the information of the plasma at RHIC and LHC energies.
