Abstract: (Elsevier)
We have studied the evolution and dilepton production of a chemically equilibrating quark-gluon plasma considering finite baryon density based on Jüttner distribution of partons, and found that due to the increasing of the quark phase life-time with increasing initial quark chemical potential, high initial temperature, large gluon density of the system as well as large gluon fusion gg→c c ̄ cross section in the intermediate mass region, quark–antiquark annihilation q q ̄ →l l ̄ , especially, thermal charmed quarks from the gluon fusion gg→c c ̄ and quark–antiquark annihilation q q ̄ →c c ̄ provide a dominant contribution to dileptons, resulting in a significant enhancement of intermediate mass dileptons.
