Enhanced photon production near the light-cone by a hot plasma

Abstract

Strong collinear divergences, although regularized by a thermal mass, result in a breakdown of the standard hard thermal loop expansion in the calculation of the production rate of photons by a plasma of quarks and gluons using thermal field theory techniques.
