Effect of changes in meson properties in a nuclear medium - $J/\Psi$ 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, $J/\Psi$ dissociation on pion and $\rho$ meson comovers in relativistic heavy ion collisions, and the prediction of the $\omega$-, $\eta$- and $\eta'$-nuclear bound states.
