We study the nuclear matter solution in the chiral quark soliton model coupled to $\rho$ and $\omega$ vector mesons based on the Wigner-Seitz approximation. It is shown that the vector mesons stabilize the soliton at high-density region. As…
We discuss the nuclear parton distribution functions on the basis of our recently developed semi-microscopic model, which takes into account a number of nuclear effects including Fermi motion and nuclear binding, nuclear meson-exchange…
We determine the quark distributions and structure functions for both unpolarized and polarized DIS of leptons on nucleons and nuclei. The scalar and vector mean fields in the nucleus modify the motion of the quarks inside the nucleons. By…

The dynamical origins of the EMC effect are studied. We conclude that a swelling in size of a bound nucleon as well as nuclear binding plays an important r\^ole in determining the parton distributions within a bound nucleon. We find that…
It has been recently confirmed that the magnitude of the EMC effect measured in electron deep inelastic scattering is linearly related to the Short Range Correlation scaling factor obtained from electron inclusive scattering. By using a…
The atomic nucleus is made of protons and neutrons (nucleons), that are themselves composed of quarks and gluons. Understanding how the quark-gluon structure of a nucleon bound in an atomic nucleus is modified by the surrounding nucleons is…
We review the chiral variant and invariant components of nucleon masses and its consequence on the chiral restoration in extreme conditions, neutron star matter in particular. We consider a model of linear realization of chiral symmetry…
The nucleon-nucleon problem is studied as a six-quark system in a nonrelativistic chiral constituent quark model where the Hamiltonian contains a linear confinement and a pseudoscalar meson (Goldstone boson) exchange interaction between the…
Using the quark-meson coupling model, we study the longitudinal response function for quasielastic electron scattering from nuclear matter within relativistic RPA. In QMC the coupling constant between the scalar meson and the nucleon is…
It has been conjectured that, at sufficiently high baryon densities, the equation of state (EoS) of bulk nuclear matter can be identified with that of the nucleon core. In this work, we illustrate how the energy density and pressure…
Neutron star observations, as well as experiments on neutron-rich nuclei, used to motivate one to look at degenerate nuclear matter from its extreme, namely, pure neutron matter. As an important next step, impurities and clusters in dilute…
We systematically investigate the vacuum stability and nuclear properties in the effective chiral model with higher order terms in $\sigma$. We evaluate the model parameters by considering the saturation properties of nuclear matter as well…
We derive the equation of state of symmetric nuclear matter in a relativistic theory with $\sigma$ and $\omega$ exchange. We take a chiral version of this model which insures all the chiral constraints. Going beyond the mean field approach…

The scale-dependence of the nucleon-nucleon interaction, which in recent years has been extensively analysed within the context of chiral effective field theory, is, in fact, inherent in any potential models constrained by a fit to…
