Recent experiments studying the meson–nucleus interaction to extract meson–nucleus
potentials are reviewed. The real part of the potentials quantifies whether the interaction is …

Photoproduction of mesons is an excellent tool for the study of nucleon resonances.
Complementary to pion induced reactions, photoproduction on the free proton contributes to …

A review of evidence on the properties of the A= 12 nuclei, with emphasis on material
leading to information about the structure of the A= 12 systems.

Searches for a nucleon decay into a charged antilepton (e+ or μ+) plus a light meson (π 0, π-
, η, ρ 0, ρ-, ω) were performed using the Super-Kamiokande I and II data. Twelve nucleon …

A review of the present understanding of η′ and η meson physics and these mesons as a
probe of gluon dynamics in low-energy QCD is presented. Recent highlights include the …

We give an updated discussion of the in-medium properties of K− mesons in nuclear matter,
including implications for K±subthreshold production in heavy-ion collisions. The second …

We argue that η bound states in nuclei are sensitive to the singlet component in the η. The
bigger the singlet component, the more attraction and the greater the binding. Thus …

The s-wave η self-energy in the nuclear medium is calculated in a chiral unitary approach. A
coupled channel Bethe–Salpeter equation is solved to obtain the effective ηN interaction in …

We study the in-medium properties of mesons (π, η, ρ) and baryon resonances in cold
nuclear matter within a coupled-channel analysis. The meson self energies are generated …

Photoproduction of neutral pions from the deuteron has been studied for incident photon
energies from 200 MeV to 792 MeV with the TAPS detector at the Mainz MAMI accelerator …
