…Since the mean free path of the produced photons is considerably larger than the size of the nuclear volume, photons produced throughout all stages of the collision will be observable in the final state. …., thereby provide evidence for the possible formation of a quark gluon plasma (QGP). (WA70, 1996)
Photons and dileptons are potentially more direct probes of the early collision stages since they escape from the impact zone nearly undisturbed by final-state interactions and have their largest emission rates in hot and dense matter. Moreover, according to the vector dominance model, dilepton production is mediated in the hadronic phase by the light neutral vector mesons ρ, ω, and φ which mark the low-mass region by distinctive resonance peaks. (CERES, 2005)
Measurement of direct photon production allows more definitive discrimination between initial- and final-state suppression due to the fact that photons, once produced, are essentially unaffected by the surrounding matter. Hence photons produced directly in initial parton scatterings are not quenched unless the initial parton distributions are suppressed in the nucleus.. (PHENIX, 2005)

Werner’s comment: The isospin effect has to be bigger than for 0, because for 0 the qg channel is proportional to g(x1)*(u+d+ubar+dbar)(x2), among other things, which is flavor and isospin "blind"…
