In-medium pseudoscalar $D/B$ mesons and charmonium decay width
Abstract
Using QCD sum rules and chiral SU(3) model, we investigate the effect of temperature, density, strangeness fraction and isospin asymmetric parameter on the shift in masses and decay constants of the pseudoscalar and meson in hadronic medium, which consist of nucleons and hyperons. The in-medium properties of and mesons within QCD sum rule approach depend upon the quark and gluon condensates. In chiral SU(3) model, quark and gluon condensates are introduced through the explicit symmetry breaking term and the trace anomaly property of the QCD, respectively and are written in terms of scalar fields , , and . Hence, through medium modification of , , and fields, we obtain the medium modified masses and decay constants of and mesons. As an application, using model, we calculate the in-medium decay width of the higher charmonium states , and to the pairs, considering the in-medium mass of mesons. These results may be important to understand the possible outcomes of high energy physics experiments, e.g., CBM and PANDA at GSI, Germany.
