Parallel Session C1: In-medium and strangeness
- Beatrice Ramstein (IJCLab)
Understanding the modification of heavy mesons when embedded in a high-temperature medium of light mesons is essential in order to properly extract information from the hot matter created in heavy-ion collisions in LHC and RHIC. With this aim, we employ an effective field theory based on chiral and heavy-quark spin-flavor symmetries to describe the scattering of the open heavy-flavor mesons...
In our work, we use the coupled channel approach to revisite the interaction of $K\bar{K}$ and its coupled channel, where the states $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ were dynamically reproduced in the interaction of isospin I=0 and I=1 sectors, respectively. In our results, the states of σ and $f_0(980)$ can be dynamically reproduced stably with varying cutoffs both in the coupled channel and the...
We investigate (axial)vector meson mass modifications and their effects on the chiral phase transition and various thermodynamical quantities within the framework of an (axial)vector meson extended Polyakov quark meson model. The model is parameterized at zero temperature and density by comparing calculated masses and decay widths with their experimental values taken from the PDG. Meson...
