We compute the photon emission rate of an equilibrated, hot QCD plasma at zero chemical potential, to leading order in both alpha_{EM} and the QCD coupling g_s(T). This requires inclusion of near-collinear bremsstrahlung and inelastic pair annihilation contributions, and correct incorporation of Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal suppression effects for these processes. Analogous results for a QED plasma are also included.

Thermal Spectra Without Detailed Balance
Thermal spectra can be produced by certain classes of emission kernels without probe thermalization, as when the differential cross section depends on angle but not on the Mandelstam variable s, providing a kernel-bas...
