In this article, we assume that the nonet scalar mesons below $1\,\rm{ GeV}$ are the two-quark-tetraquark mixed states and study their masses and pole residues using the QCD sum rules. In calculation, we take into account the vacuum…

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…
The quark condensate in nuclear matter contains a term of order $\rho m_\pi$, arising from the contribution of low-momentum virtual pions to the $\pi N$ sigma commutator. Standard treatments of QCD sum rules for a nucleon in matter generate…
