Description
Results obtained from dilepton measurements over the past 25 years at energies from SPS energies up to RHIC and LHC energies will be reviewed. The motivation for extending these measurements to lower energies will be discussed with emphasis on the onset of the deconfinement phase transition, the onset of chiral symmetry restoration and the search for a first order phase transition. The current status of the NICA facility and the possibility to perform these measurements with the MPD detector will be presented.
