We perform systematical studies on transverse-mass spectra of $\pi^0$, $\eta$, $\omega$, $\phi$, $K^+$ and $K^-$ mesons for C + C, Ni + Ni, Au + Au collisions at SIS energies within the HSD transport approach. We find that the $m_T$-spectra…
Recently the Belle collaboration has discovered a narrow $S=-3$ baryon, the $\Omega(2012)$. We explore the possibility that the $\Omega(2012)$ is a $\Xi(1530)\,\bar K$ molecule, where the binding mechanism is the coupled channel dynamics…
An important role of the scalar isoscalar sigma-meson in the low-energy physics is discussed. The behavior of the sigma-meson in the hot and dense medium is studied. It is shown that in the vicinity of critical values of temperature(T) and…
