Effect of changes in meson properties in a nuclear medium - $J/Ψ$ dissociation in nuclear matter, and meson-nucleus bound states

Abstract

We discuss the effect of changes in meson properties in a nuclear medium on physical observables, notably, $J/Ψ$ dissociation on pion and $ρ$ meson comovers in relativistic heavy ion collisions, and the prediction of the $ω$-, $η$- and $η'$-nuclear bound states.
