We use the microscopic GiBUU transport model to calculate dilepton ($e^+e^-$) production in heavy-ion collisions at SIS18 energies focusing on the effect of collisional broadening of the $rho$-meson. The collisional width of the $rho$-meson at finite temperature and baryon density in nuclear matter is calculated on the basis of the collision integral of the GiBUU model. A systematic comparison with HADES data on dilepton production in heavy-ion collisions is performed. The collisional broadening of the $rho$ improves the agreement between theory and experiment for the dilepton invariant-mass distributions near the $rho$ pole mass and for the excess radiation in Au+Au at $1.23 A$ GeV. We furthermore show that some remaining underprediction of the experimental dilepton spectra in C+C at $1 A$ GeV and Au+Au at $1.23 A$ GeV at intermediate invariant masses $0.2-0.4$ GeV can be accounted for by adjusting the $pn$ bremsstrahlung cross section in a way to agree with the inclusive dilepton spectrum from $dp$ collisions at $1.25 A$ GeV.
We compute dilepton invariant mass spectra from the decays of rho mesons produced by photon reactions off nuclei. Our calculations employ a realistic model for the rho photoproduction amplitude on the nucleon which provides fair agreement with measur
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

We report on a self-consistent calculation of the in-medium spectral functions of the rho and omega mesons at finite baryon density. The corresponding in-medium dilepton spectrum is generated and compared with HADES data. We find that an iterative ca
The in-medium spectral functions of $rho$ and $omega$ mesons and the broadening of the nucleon resonances at finite baryon density are calculated self-consistently by combining a resonance dominance model for the vector meson production with an exten
