A possibility of explaining the anomalies in the semileptonic $B$-meson decay $B \to K^{*} \mu \bar\mu$ has been explored in the framework of the gauged $U(1)_{\mu-\tau}$ symmetry. Apart from the muon anomalous magnetic moment and neutrino…
We report on a robust prediction of heavy $K^*$ meson by solving the Faddeev equations with fixed-center approximation for the three-body $KD\bar{D}^*$ system. As the excited Kaon state, $K^*$ is an exotic hidden charm meson with…
We study the in-medium properties of $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons in isospin-asymmetric nuclear matter at finite temperatures using an effective chiral SU(4) model. The interactions of $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons with nucleons, scalar isoscalar…
We have measured invariant mass spectra of electron-positron pairs in the target rapidity region of 12GeV p+A reactions. We have observed a significant difference in the mass spectra below the $\omega$ meson between p+C and p+Cu…
In--medium interactions of $\omega$--mesons are investigated microscopically by coupling to $NN^{-1}$ and $N^*N^{-1}$ particle--hole excitations of the medium, including elativistic mean--field dynamics by self--consistent scalar and vector…
The scattering of antikaons with nucleons is studied in the nuclear environment. Describing the $\lam$ as a $K^-$ proton bound state, we find, that due to the Pauli blocking of intermediate states, the mass of the $\Lambda (1405)$ is…
We review the effect of hadron structure changes in a nuclear medium using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, which is based on a mean field description of non-overlapping nucleon (or baryon) bags bound by the self-consistent exchange of…
We have determined the transparency of the nuclear medium to kaons from $A(e,e^{'} K^{+})$ measurements on $^{12}$C, $^{63}$Cu, and $^{197}$Au targets. The measurements were performed at the Jefferson Laboratory and span a range in…
Coupled channels model of meson-baryon interactions based on the effective chiral Lagrangian is extended to account explicitly for the $\Sigma(1385)$ resonance that dominates the $P$-wave $\bar{K}N$ and $\pi\Sigma$ interactions at energies…
Moments of the $\phi$ meson spectral function in vacuum and in nuclear matter are analyzed, combining a model based on chiral SU(3) effective field theory (with kaonic degrees of freedom) and finite-energy QCD sum rules. For the vacuum we…
By using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we investigate various form factors between nucleons and mesons in a nuclear medium. In order to describe a nuclear medium holographically, we take into account the thermal charged AdS geometry with an…
The $\phi$-meson properties in cold nuclear matter are investigated by implementing resonant $\phi N$ interactions as described in effective approaches including the unitarization of scattering amplitudes. Several $N^*$-like states are…
In a recent theoretical work, Phys. Lett. B785, 112 (2018), we proposed that a $K^*$ resonance with hidden charm content arises from the $KD\bar D^*$ dynamics, where the $D\bar D^*$ system is treated as a $Z_c(3900)$ or $X(3872)$. With the…
We study the properties of the kappa meson in the nuclear medium, starting from a chiral unitary model of S-wave, I=1/2 K-pi scattering, which describes the elastic K-pi phase shifts and generates a pole in the amplitude. Medium effects are…
In this work, we investigate the behavior of the light vector \(\rho\) meson in the presence of a symmetric nuclear medium at zero temperature. We calculate the mass and decay constant of the $\rho$-meson as well as the leading twist…
A set of coupled two-body scattering equations is solved for the DN system embedded in an iso-symmetric nuclear matter. The in-medium behavior of charmed D mesons: (D^+,D^0), is investigated from the self-consistent solution within this…
Relativistic mean field calculations of multi-$\bar{K}$ hypernuclei are performed by adding $K^-$ mesons to particle-stable configurations of nucleons, $\Lambda$ and $\Xi$ hyperons. For a given hypernuclear core, the calculated $\bar{K}$…
Non-uniform structures of nuclear matter are studied in a wide density-range. Using the density functional theory with a relativistic mean-field model, we examine non-uniform structures at sub-nuclear densities (nuclear ``pastas'') and at…
We first briefly review the theoretical basis for calculations of changes of hadronic properties in dense nuclear matter. These changes have usually been investigated by means of relativistic heavy-ion reactions. Here we discuss that…
Chiral symmetry is one of the most fundamental symmetries in QCD. It is closely connected to hadron properties in the nuclear medium via the reduction of the quark condensate <bar{q}q>, manifesting the partial restoration of chiral…
