  "abstract": "We investigate dilepton production in transport-based approaches and show that the baryon couplings of the $\\rho$ meson represent the most important ingredient for understanding the measured dilepton spectra. At low energies (of a few GeV), the baryon resonances naturally play a larger role and affect already the vacuum spectra via Dalitz-like contributions, which can be captured well in an on-shell-transport scheme. At higher energies, the baryons mostly affect the in-medium self energy of the $\\rho$, which is harder to tackle in transport models and requires advanced techniques.",
