In-medium properties of hadrons - Recent experimental results and perspectives

摘要

Recent experimental results on the modification of hadron properties in a nuclear medium are discussed. Experiments using hadron, heavy-ion and photon beams are described. Particular emphasis is given to the photonuclear production of light vector mesons and scalar mesons off nuclei. Recent results on the search for meson-nucleus bound states are presented. Perspectives for extending these studies to the charm sector are outlined.
