Jet-dilepton Conversion from an Anisotropic Quark-Gluon Plasma

We calculate the yield of lepton pair production from jet-plasma interaction where the plasma is anisotropic in momentum space. We compare both the M and p_T distributions from such process with the Drell-Yan contribution. It is observed that the invariant mass distribution of lepton pair from such process dominate over the Drell-Yan up to 3 GeV at RHIC and up to 10 GeV at LHC. Moreover, it is found that the contribution from anistropic quark gluon plasma (AQGP) increases marginally compared to the isotropic QGP. In case of p_T-distribution we observe an increase by a factor of 3-4 in the entire p_T-range at RHIC for AQGP. However, at LHC the change in the p_T-distribution is marginal as compared to the isotropic case.
