摘要
Both dilepton and charm production at RHIC are considered to be important signatures for quark-gluon plasma production. Recently it was argued by Gavin et al. that the background from semileptonic correlated charm decays is so large that it makes dilepton measurements virtually impossible. We show that this conclusion is in fact reversed if the energy loss due to a secondary interaction of charmed quarks is included.
