We study the behavior of the rho vector mass in the context of the almost baryon-free environment of an ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collision. We show that rho scattering within the hadronic phase of the collision leads to a temperature…
Quark-hadron duality implies that a process described in terms of quark loops should be the hadronic amplitude when averaged over a sufficient number of states. Ambiguities associated with the notion of quark hadron duality can be made…

As the lightest isovector vector meson, the $\rho$ meson is an important object for investigating the structure of resonant states in strong interactions. Owing to its strong coupling to the $\pi\pi$ channel and its large decay width, the…
The cross sections for several $\gamma \gamma \to VV$ processes exhibit strong enhancements near threshold, where $V$ denotes a vector meson. The pattern of these enhancements is not well understood; for example, $\gamma \gamma \to \rho^0…
We extend relativistic mean-field models with hadron masses and meson-baryon coupling constants dependent on the scalar field $\sigma$, including hyperons and $\Delta(1232)$ baryons, to incorporate a possibility of the charged $\rho$ meson…
The Quark-Meson Coupling (QMC) model establishes a self-consistent relationship between the quark structure dynamics of a nucleon and the relativistic mean fields that arise within the nuclear medium. The model has been successful in…
In this work, we argue that the observed differences in the value of the vector coupling constant extracted from the decays $\rho\to \pi\pi$ ($g_{\rho} = 6.0$), $\rho\to l^+l^-$ ($g_{\rho} = 5.0 $) and $\omega\to l^+ l^-$ ($g_{\rho} =…
