Description

In this talk, I shall (i) review the results from almost 25 years of dilepton measurements, from the top RHIC energy of sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV down to the lowest SPS energy of sqrt(s_NN)= 9 GeV, and their relation to chiral symmetry restoration, (ii) discuss the potential, challenges and prospects of extending the dilepton measurements at much lower energies, mainly at the NICA facility under construction at JINR.
