Abstract

We calculate the shift in masses and decay constants of Ds(1968)D_s(1968) and Bs(5370)B_s(5370) mesons in hot and dense asymmetric strange hadronic matter using QCD sum rules and chiral SU(3) model. In-medium strange quark condensates sˉsρB\left\langle \bar{s}s\right\rangle_{\rho_B}, and gluon condensates αsπGaμνGaμνρB\left\langle \frac{\alpha_{s}}{\pi} {G^a}_{\mu\nu} {G^a}^{\mu\nu} \right\rangle_{\rho_B} to be used in the QCD sum rules for pseudoscalar DsD_s and BsB_s mesons are calculated using chiral SU(3) model. As an application of our present work, we calculate the in-medium decay widths of the excited (csˉ\bar{s}) states Ds(2715)D_s^*(2715) and Ds(2860)D_s^*(2860) decaying to (Ds(1968)D_s(1968),η\eta) mesons. The medium effects in their decay widths are incorporated through the mass modification of the Ds(1968)D_s(1968) and η\eta mesons. Results of the present investigation may be helpful to understand the possible outcomes of the future experiments like CBM and PANDA under the FAIR facility.
