Chiral symmetry restoration in a dense medium is to some extent a consequence of the nuclear pion cloud. These pions induce a mixing of the axial and vector current contributions in the axial and vector correlators. We discuss their…

We discuss medium modification of the rho meson originating from its coupling to in medium quasi-pions and delta-hole states. This medium effect leads to a marked structure of the rho meson strength function in the $500 MeV$ invariant mass…
A new set of functions, which form a basis of the massive nonpower expansion for physical observables, is presented in the framework of the analytic approach to QCD at the four-loop level. The effects due to the $\pi$ meson mass are taken…
The effect of mixing of the vector and axial vector correlation functions in the nuclear medium arising from the interaction of nuclear pions with corresponding interpolating currents is considered. It is shown that the mass difference…
Experimental searches for modifications of vector mesons in the nuclear medium are reviewed. Data on $\rho,\omega$ and $\Phi$ mesons are presented. The results have been obtained in elementary reactions with proton and photon beams as well…
Characteristic properties of pionium $A_{2\pi}$ and associated low energy s--wave cross sections $\sigma(\pi^0\pi^0\to \pi^0\pi^0)$, $\sigma(\pi^+\pi^-\to\pi^0\pi^0)$ and $\sigma(\pi^0\pi^0\to \pi^+\pi^-)$ are investigated with a coupled…
Mechanism of di-pion transitions $nS\to n'S\pi\pi(n=3,2; n'=2,1)$ in bottomonium and charmonium is studied with the use of the chiral string-breaking Lagrangian allowing for the emission of any number of $\pi(K,\eta),$ and not containing…
