Starting with the Strongly Correlated Quark Model of a hadron structure, SCQM, we demonstrate how the properties of mesons and baryons are modified in a hot and dense nuclear environment. These in-medium modifications can lead to the…
It is shown that general dilepton angular distribution (with parity violating terms taking into account) in vector particle decays can be described through a set of five SO(3) rotational-invariant observables. These observables are derived…

We discuss the equation of state of neutron stars in the dense interior considering hyperons and the possible onset of kaon condensation within the relativistic mean field model. We find that hyperons are favoured in dense matter and that…

We show that the measurement of di-leptons might provide only a restricted view into the most dense stages of heavy ion reactions. Thus, possible studies of meson and baryon properties at high baryon densities, as e.g. done at GSI-HADES and…
We investigate the potential of rare hyperon decays to probe the short distance structure in the $s\to d\nu\bar\nu$ and $s\to d\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions. Hyperon decays into neutrinos ($B_1\to B_2\nu\bar\nu$) can be reliably predicted by…
The production and propagation of mesons ($\pi, \eta, \rho, \omega, \Phi, K, \bar{K}, J/\Psi$) in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions from 1 - 200 GeV/u is studied within the covariant transport approach HSD, which explicitly…
In the last years much work has been done to learn about the properties of the $\rho$-meson in nuclear matter. In a calculation of the in-medium spectralfunction of the $\rho$ we find that it is strongly modified by baryonic resonances,…
