Using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, we investigate whether $\omega, \eta, \eta'$ and $D^-$ mesons form meson-nucleus bound states. Our results suggest that one should expect to find $\eta$- and $\omega$-nucleus bound states in all…

We demonstrate that a relativistic constituent quark model can give nucleon form factors that agree well with recent, accurate measurements. The relativistic features of the model and the specific form of the wave function are essential for…
We model the transition of a system of quarks and gluons at high energies to a system of quarks and mesons at low energies in a consistent renormalization group approach. Flow equations interpolate between the physics of the…

In-medium nucleon electromagnetic form factors are calculated in the quark meson coupling model. The form factors are typically found to be suppressed as the density increases. For example, at normal nuclear density and $Q^2 \sim 0.3 {…
