We investigate the radiative decays of the $\phi$ meson to the scalar mesons $a_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. We demonstrate that, contrary to earlier claims, these decays should be of the same order of magnitude for a molecular state and for a…
We investigate the medium modification of the generalized vector form factors of the nucleon, which include the electromagnetic and energy-momentum tensor form factors, based on an in-medium modified $\pi$-$\rho$-$\omega$ soliton model. We…
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…
We present a new reaction, complementary to the $J/\psi\rightarrow \eta K^{*0}\bar{K}^{*0}$ from which an $h_1$ resonance with mass around $1830$ MeV was reported from a BESIII experiment. The new reaction is $\eta_c\rightarrow \phi…
We report on recent results on the decay of the phi into pi^+ pi^- and phi radiative decays into pi^0 pi^0 gamma and pi^0 eta gamma, which require the consideration of the final state interaction of a pair of mesons in a region inaccessible…
We revisit Sakurai's remark on the regularities of lepton-pair widths for mesons, extending the panorama to radiative $X \to \gamma \gamma$ and total decays. The regularities persist, and somehow surprisingly some of them seem to relate…
We present $\Phi$- and $J/\Psi$--nuclear bound state energies and absorption widths for some selected nuclei, using potentials in the local density approximation computed from an effective Lagrangian approach combined with the quark-meson…
We calculate the predicted width for the radiative decay of a $1^{++}$ heavy meson via the channel $1^{++} \to 1^{--} +\gamma$ in the covariant light-front quark model. Specifically, we compute the decay widths for $\chi_{c1}(1P) \to J/\psi…
The $\Lambda$ and neutron decay widths of $\Xi$ hypernuclear states, based on calculated $\Xi N \to \lala$ mixing amplitudes, are estimated. The widths which result from using the Nijmegen Model D interaction are sufficiently small, of…
Changes in the meson-nucleon coupling constant and the vertex form factor in nuclear matter are studied in a modified Skyrme Lagrangian including the sigma-meson field that satisfies the scale invariance. Renormalization of the axial-vector…
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…
Mass number dependence of the nuclear radii is closely related to the nuclear matter properties. It is known that the most of nuclei exhibit some deformation. We discuss how the nuclear density profile is modified by the nuclear deformation…
The branching ratios of K^- absorption at rest in nuclear matter are evaluated from the K^- self-energy by using the chiral unitary approach for the s-wave \bar{K} N amplitude. We find that both the mesonic and non-mesonic absorption…
The $D$-meson spectral density at finite temperature is obtained within a self-consistent coupled-channel approach. For the bare meson-baryon interaction, a separable potential is taken, whose parameters are fixed by the position and width…
We have made a new evaluation of the Lambda decay width in nuclear matter within the Propagator Method. Through the Local Density Approximation it is possible to obtain results in finite nuclei. We have also studied the dependence of the…
A first measurement of the e+e-decay rate of phi mesons in dAu collisions from the PHENIX detector at RHIC and its comparison to the K+K- decay channel is described. The comparison of the two decay channels can be sensitive to chiral…
Using a data sample of 106 million $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII storage ring, we study for the first time the decay $\chi_{cJ}\to\phi K^{0}_S K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}$ and $\chi_{cJ}\to\phi K^{+}…
$\Lambda^+_c$ hypernuclei are expected to have binding energies and other properties similar to those of strange hypernuclei in view of the similarity between the quark structures of the strange and charmed hyperons, namely $\Lambda(uds)$…
