Resumo

Photon production cross sections in intermediate energy heavy-ion reactions are calculated using detailed balance. The model gives substantial photon yields and reproduces qualitatively the experimental observations. A possible influence of the \ensuremath{\Delta}-isobar degree of freedom on the high energy photon yield is pointed out.
