In-Medium Properties of Hadrons

Nuclear Experiment 2011-07-19 v1

Abstract

A diverse experimental program for the study of the photoproduction of mesons off nuclei has been carried out - and is still running - at the Mainz MAMI and Bonn ELSA electron accelerators with the TAPS, Crystal Barrel, and Crystal Ball calorimeters. It is motivated as a detailed study of the in-medium properties of hadrons and the meson - nucleus interactions. Typical examples for the in-medium behavior of vector mesons (ω\omega), scalar mesons (σ\sigma), and nucleon resonances (P33_{33}(1232), S11_{11}(1535), D15_{15}(1520)) are discussed. Special attention is paid to meson - nucleus final state interactions.
