$\bar{\mathrm{D}}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ mesons in nuclear medium
Abstract
We discuss the mass modifications of and ( and ) mesons in nuclear medium. The heavy quark symmetry for and ( and ) mesons is adopted, and the interaction between a or ( or ) meson and a nucleon is supplied from the pion exchange. We find the negative mass shifts for meson and meson, and hence that the and mesons are bound in the nuclear medium. As applications, we consider the atomic nuclei with a meson, and , and investigate the energy levels of the meson in each nucleus. We also discuss the mass shifts in the isospin asymmetric nuclear medium, and present the possible phenomenon about distribution of isospin density around a or meson in nuclear medium. We find that the mass shifts of and mesons have large imaginary parts, which would prevent precise study of the energy levels of and mesons in nuclei.
