Two new QCD sum rules for nucleons in nuclear matter are obtained from a mixed correlator of spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 interpolating fields. These new sum rules, which are insensitive to the poorly known four-quark condensates, provide…
We study the decay channels of the $\Lambda(1520)$ in a nuclear medium and find a sizable change - of the order of factor five - of the width of this hyperon at normal nuclear matter density. The mass shift of the $\Lambda(1520)$ is…
We study the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance with $I(J^{P})=0(1/2^{-}) $ in the context of the pentaquark hypothesis in the nuclear medium. For the investigation of the influence of the nuclear medium on the physical parameters of…

We formulate a QCD sum rule to find the three momentum dependence of the peak position of the vector meson spectral density in nuclear medium. We find less than 2 % (0.1 %) shift of the peak position at nuclear matter density and at ($q…

The baryon self-energies are expressed in terms of the QCD condensates of the lowest dimension in symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter within the QCD sum-rule approach. The self-energies are shown to satisfy the Gell-Mann--Okubo…
We calculate the contribution to the polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons in relativistic nuclear collisions at high energy from the decays of $\Sigma^*(1385)$ and $\Sigma^0$, which are the predominant sources of $\Lambda$ production besides…

In this work we analyse positive- and negative-parity channels for the nucleon (spin $1/2$ octet), $\Delta$ and $\Omega$ baryons (spin $3/2$ decuplet) using lattice QCD. In Nature, at zero temperature, chiral symmetry is spontaneously…
The dispersion relation of the $\phi$ meson in nuclear matter is studied in a QCD sum rule approach. In a dense medium, longitudinal and transverse modes of vector particles can have independently modified dispersion relations due to broken…
