The propagation of sigma meson in nuclear matter is studied in the Walecka model, assuming that the sigma couples to a pair of nucleon-antinucleon states and to particle-hole states, including the in medium effect of sigma-omega mixing. We…
We discuss QCD sum rule constraints based on moments of vector meson spectral distributions in the vacuum and in a nuclear medium. Sum rules for the two lowest moments of these spectral distributions do not suffer from uncertainties related…

We present a new perspective on the nature of quark and gluon condensates in quantum chromodynamics. We suggest that the spatial support of QCD condensates is restricted to the interiors of hadrons, since these condensates arise due to the…

We investigate the in-medium properties of pseudoscalar and vector mesons with the light-light and heavy-light quarks in a light-front quark model, using the in-medium quark properties computed by the quark-meson coupling model. Both models…
We study hot nuclear matter in an explicit quark model based on a mean field description of nonoverlapping nucleon bags bound by the self-consistent exchange of scalar and vector mesons as well as the glueball field. The glueball exchange…

Within a chiral quark sigma model in which quarks interact via the exchange of sigma and pi-mesons, hadron properties are investigated. This model of the nucleon and delta is based on the idea that strong QCD forces on very short distances…
A modified linear sigma model that allows for $g_A = 1.26$ by addition of vector and pseudovector $\pi N$ coupling terms was discussed by Bjorken and Nauenberg and by Lee. In this extended linear sigma model the elastic $\pi $N scattering…
In a recent work we introduced a nonlocal version of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio(NJL) model that was designed to generate a quark self-energy in Euclidean space that was similar to that obtained in lattice simulations of QCD. In the present…
We calculate the large-volume and small-mass dependences of the quark condensate in quenched QCD using Neuberger's operator. We find good agreement with the predictions of quenched chiral perturbation theory, enabling a determination of the…
Recent heavy ion experiments indicate modifications of the $\rho-$meson mass in medium. In the CERES experiments $\rho-$mesons are produced at $\sim$ normal nuclear matter density, where hadrons are more appropriate constituents than…
A new sum rule determines the nucleon sigma term by the \pi N elastic scattering threshold parameters alone. This "threshold" value of \sigma(2\mu^2) provides an independent check of existing values obtained from global dispersive analyses,…
After a brief summary of the QCD phase structure with light quarks, we discuss two recent developments on in-medium hadrons. First topic is the sigma-meson which is a fluctuation of the chiral order parameter \bar{q}q. Although sigma is at…
Equation of state (EOS) of pure neutron matter (PNM) is studied in QCD sum rules (QCDSR). It is found that the QCDSR results on EOS of PNM are in good agreement with predictions by current advanced microscopic many-body theories. Moreover,…
We consider strong interactions at finite density in mean field theory, through an effective lagrangian that can describe both nuclear matter and quark matter. This lagrangian has three couplings that are all fixed by experiment and no…
We review various approaches to the calculation of QCD condensates and of the nucleon characteristics in nuclear matter. We show the importance of their self-consistent treatment. The first steps in such treatment appeared to be very…
