Abstract

We present a comprehensive analysis of photon production at RHIC and the LHC, proposing radiative hadronization as an additional photon source in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. For thermal photon, we perform relativistic viscous hydrodynamic calculation with event-by-event fluctuations.
