Abstract.

e + e - production was studied using the High Acceptance DiElectron Spectrometer (HADES). In pp collisions at 2.2GeV kinetic beam energy, the exclusive η production and the Dalitz decay ηγe + e - have been reconstructed. The electromagnetic form factor of the latter decay was found to be in good agreement with the existing theoretical predictions. In addition, an inclusive e + e - invariant-mass spectrum from the 12C + 12C reaction at 2AGeV is presented and compared with a simplified thermal model.
