We study the bound nucleon sigma term and the quark condensate in nuclear matter. In the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model the nuclear correction to the sigma term is small and negative, i.e., it decelerates the decrease of the quark…
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…

The analysis of the sum rules (for two differentchoices of 5-quark currents) indicate that to explain experimental results it is necessary to have some one-particle lower state (and pentaquark is a reliable candidate to this state) while…
The photoproduction rate of pentaquark $\Theta^+$ is calculated in a hot and dense medium. At high temperature and density, due to the restoration of chiral symmetry, photoproduction energy threshold is increased. Above the thresold the…
