Medium Modifications of Vector Mesons and NA60

Abstract

We confront different models for medium modifications of the electromagnetic correlation function to recent dimuon spectra from the NA60 collaboration for central In-In collisions at the CERN-SPS. In the low-mass region (M 1.0 GeV), we evaluate medium modifications of the spectral properties of -, ω- and φ-mesons. In the intermediate-mass region (M>1.0 GeV), we employ schematic models for the mixing of vector and axialvector current correlators, which provide a mechanism for chiral-symmetry restoration.
