The properties of open strange meson K1± in nuclear matter are estimated in the QCD sum rule approach. We obtain a relation between the in-medium mass and width of K1− (K1+) in nuclear matter, and show that the upper limit of the mass shift is as large as −249 (−35) MeV. The spectral modification of the K1 meson is possible to be probed by using kaon beams at J-PARC. Such measurement together with that of K⁎ will shed light on how chiral symmetry is partially restored in nuclear matter.
The J/psi-hadron interaction is a key ingredient in analyzing the J/psi suppression in hot hadronic matter as well as the propagation of J/psi in nuclei. As a first step to clarify the J/psi-hadron interactions at low energies, we have calculated J/psi-pi, J/psi-rho and J/psi-nucleon scattering lengths by the quenched lattice QCD simulations with Wilson fermions for beta=6.2 on 24^3*48 and 32^3*48 lattices. Using the Luscher's method to extract the scattering length from the simulations in a finite box, we find an attractive interaction in the S-wave channel for all three systems: Among others, the J/psi-nucleon interaction is most attractive. Possibility of the J/psi-nucleon bound state is also discussed.
