Spectra for the emission of charged leptons from evaporating hot-spots ofpreconfining phase in SU(2) Yang-Mills thermodynamics are computed.Specifically, we consider charged single and dileptons with their spectra beingfunctions of energy and invariant mass, respectively. In the former case, ourresults relate to narrow and correlated electron and positron peaks measured insupercritical heavy-ion collisions performed at GSI in the 1980ies. In thelatter case, we point out how strongly the spectra depend on typical kinematiccuts (CDF analysis of Tevatron Run II data). We also propose a scenario on howmuon events of anomalously high multiplicity and large impact-parameter modulusarise in the Tevatron data.
